Two cards are drawn from a standard deck od 52 cards and the first in not replaced before the second is drawn. Find the probability
A. A queen followed by another queen
B. An ace followed by a face card
———————————
A. P(First queen) = 4/52
P(Second queen) = 3/51
P(Q then Q) = (4/52)(3/51) = 12/2652 = (approx. 0.004525)
B. P(Ace) = 4/52
P(Face Card on 2nd draw) = 12/51 (counting only J,Q,K as face cards)
P(Ace then face card) = (4/52)(12/51) = 48/2652 = (approx. 0.01810)
