In how many different ways can two black cards be drawn from a standard deck of cards? Assume that the order of the cards matters.
--------------------
# of ways to pick the two black cards from a deck of 52 = 26C2
# of ways to order the two cards picked = 2
============
Total # of ways = 26C2 * 2 = 26*25/1*2 *2 = 26*25 = 650
==============
