Two cards are drawn in succession from a standard deck of 52 cards. Find the probability that an ace and a jack, in that order, are drawn.
----
# of ways to pick an ace: 4
# of ways to pick a jack: 4
---
# of ace/jack pairs = 16
----
# of random pairs: 52C2 = 1326
-----
P(ace/jack) = 16/1326 = 0.0098
