Hi

if three cards are drawn at random without replacement from a standard deck,

 find the probability that the third card is a face card, 

given that the first card was a queen and the second card was a 5?

 1.  Two cards are out of the 52 card deck, including one of the 12 face cards

 P(the third card is a face card) = 11/50
