You have a peak of 52 playing cards.12 are picture cards and the rest are number cards. You pick out another card out without looking, and without replacing it, you pick out another random card at random. WHAT ARE THE POSSIBILITIES of getting a picture card and number cards?

The probability of getting a picture card and a number card with two draws without replacement is :

 

C(12, 1) * C(40, 1)  / C(52, 2) ≈  36.2 %
