Answer:

4/663

Explanation:

Probability is the likelihood or chance that an event will occur.

Probability = Expected outcome/Total outcome

Since we are to draw from a pack of card, the total outcome will be 52

Since there are 4 hearts;

Pr(selecting heart) = 4/52 = 1/13

If a club is then selected without replacement, the total number of card remaining will be 51;

Pr(selecting a heart) = 4/51

probability of drawing a heart and a club in that order = 4/52 * 4/51

probability of drawing a heart and a club in that order = 16/2652

probability of drawing a heart and a club in that order = 4/663
