There are 13 teams of cheerleaders at a competition. The order of performance is determined at random. What is the probability that your team performs first and your friend's tema is second?

probability of you performing first is 1/13

after your team performs there are 12 teams left, so chance of the other team performing next is 1/12


chance of both happening = 1/13 * 1/12 = 1/156
