Question 1122856

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 = {{{ highlight( 1/221 ) }}}  (approx. 0.004525) <br>

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 = {{{ highlight( 4/221 ) }}}  (approx. 0.01810)<br>
