so there are 8 total cards, so you need to make your fraction out of 8. and there are 5 blue cards, so the probability of drawing one blue card is 5/8. but because you are doing a second draw, and NOT replacing the card you pulled the first time, you need to multiply 5/8 (the probability of drawing one blue card) and 4/7 (the second drawing).
5/8•4/7=5/14 which means the probability of drawing 2 blue cards in a row without replacing the first card is 5/14

message me for questions!!
