Probability of first card's being a diamond is 13/52
second given the first is 12/51, and third given first two is 11/50
That product is 0.0129
There are 12 cards which fit that, so probability first is one of those is 12/52.
The second requires one of 8 cards, and that is 8/51. The third would be 4/50.
That product is 0.0029
