You reach into a bag of coins and withdrew two coins without replacement. What is the probability you withdrew a nickel and then a dime if the bag held ten pennies, six nickels, and five dimes?

Since the bag makes up of 11 coins in total 10 of which being pennies so for you to grab a dime that’s a 5/11 chance and for nickel that’s 6/11 but the probiltity of grabbing both and not a penny without replacing may be unlikely
