The following question involves a standard deck of 52 playing cards. In such a deck of cards there are four suits of 13 cards each. The four suits are: hearts, diamonds, clubs, and spades. The 26 cards included in hearts and diamonds are red. The 26 cards included in clubs and spades are black. The 13 cards in each suit are: 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, Jack, Queen, King, and Ace. This means there are four Aces, four Kings, four Queens, four 10s, etc., down to four 2s in each deck. You draw two cards from a standard deck of 52 cards without replacing the first one before drawing the second. (a) Are the outcomes on the two cards independent? Why? No. The events cannot occur together.Yes. The probability of drawing a specific second card is the same regardless of the identity of the first drawn card. No. The probability of drawing a specific second card depends on the identity of the first card.Yes. The events can occur together. (b) Find P(ace on 1st card and ten on 2nd). (Enter your answer as a fraction.) (c) Find P(ten on 1st card and ace on 2nd). (Enter your answer as a fraction.) (d) Find the probability of drawing an ace and a ten in either order. (Enter your answer as a fraction.)
Permutations and Combinations
If there are 5 dishes, they can be relished in any order at a time. In permutation, it should be in a particular order. In combination, the order does not matter. Take 3 letters a, b, and c. The possible ways of pairing any two letters are ab, bc, ac, ba, cb and ca. It is in a particular order. So, this can be called the permutation of a, b, and c. But if the order does not matter then ab is the same as ba. Similarly, bc is the same as cb and ac is the same as ca. Here the list has ab, bc, and ac alone. This can be called the combination of a, b, and c.
Counting Theory
The fundamental counting principle is a rule that is used to count the total number of possible outcomes in a given situation.

You draw two cards from a standard deck of 52 cards without replacing the first one before drawing the second.
(a)
Are the outcomes on the two cards independent? Why?(b)
Find P(ace on 1st card and ten on 2nd). (Enter your answer as a fraction.)(c)
Find P(ten on 1st card and ace on 2nd). (Enter your answer as a fraction.)(d)
Find the probability of drawing an ace and a ten in either order. (Enter your answer as a fraction.)
The total number of ways two cards can be drawn from a deck of fifty two cards is given by :
(a) No, the probability of drawing a specific second card depends on the identity of the first card.
[because when the first card is drawn, the number of cards decreases also the probabilities gets changed]
(b)
Probability of getting an ace out of cards is
Probability of getting a ten out of cards is
