Total number of all favorable cases is `n(S)=52`
Let `A` be the event that first card drawn is a king. There are four kings in the pack. Hence, the probability of the first card is a king is
`P(A)=frac{4}{52}`
Let `B` be the event that second card is also king without replacement. Then there are 3 kings in the pack as the cards are not replaced. Therefore, the probability of the second card is also king is
`P(B | A)=frac{3}{51}`
Then the probability of getting two kings without replacement is
`=P(A) P(B | A) `
