you draw two cards from a well-shuffled deck of 52 cards. After you draw the first card, you do not replace it in the deck. What is the probability of P(get ace of spades on first draw and get queen of hearts second draw?

52 total cards...
P(ace of spades on first draw) = 1/52
without replacing
P(queen of hearts) = 1/51

P(both events happening) = 1/52 * 1/51 = 1/2652 <==
