Answer:

[tex]\frac{5}{78}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the probability that the first card is gray.

Since there are 13 cards in total, and 2 are gray, the probability will be 2/13

Next, find the probability that the second card is pink.

Since there are now 12 cards in total (since there is no replacement), and 5 are pink, the probability is 5/12.

Now, to find the probability that these are drawn in order, multiply the probabilities together:

[tex]\frac{2}{13}[/tex] x [tex]\frac{5}{12}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{5}{78}[/tex]

So, the probability is [tex]\frac{5}{78}[/tex]
