Answer:

The probability of picking two cards with the girls name with out replacement


P(E) = (42)/(156) = 0.2692

Explanation:

Explanation:-

The number of cases that two cards can be drawn from '6' boys and '7' girls one after another with out replacement.

That is
13C_(1)X12C_(1) = 156ways

Let 'E' be the event of the pick another one of two cards from girls name with out replacement .

That is total number of girls =7

The number of ways cases that the two cards can be drawn one after another one without replacement =
7C_(1)X6C_(1) = 42

Required probability P(E) =
(n(E))/(n(S))


P(E) = (42)/(156) = 0.2692

Conclusion:-

The probability of picking two cards with the girls name with out replacement


P(E) = (42)/(156) = 0.2692
