Ura Trechee picks 2 spades, 3 hearts, 4 diamonds, and 5 clubs from a standard deck of cards. She shuffles the cards and deals the top three cards face up on the table. What is the probability that the top card is a heart or a diamond and the next two cards are either a spade or a club?
I was confused about the wording on the second part, I know how to get the probability of the top card that's easy, but I don't know how to get the probability of the second and third cards, any help would be greatly appreciated
