You can put this solution on YOUR website! Two cards are selected at random from a standard deck of cards. What is the probability that the first is a 5 and the second is a king if the first card is not replaced before the second is selected?
-------------
That's called "without replacement."
There are four 5's ---> 4/52 = 1/13
-----
There are four kings ----> 4/51
===================
(1/13)*(4/51) = 4/663
