Question 440295: Consider the expierement of drawing two cards without replacement from an ordinary deck of 52 playing cards. What are the odds in favor of drawing a spade and a heart?
I am really not sure where to start here. This is what I started to do but don't believe it is right.
P(spade)=13/52 P(heart without replacement)=13/51 but I have no idea if that is right or where to go from there.

You multiply them together:
13/52x13/51=169/2652
and those are your odds..
