The correct answer is:
$\frac{40}{663}$
$\begin{aligned} & \text {} P(A \text { and } B \text { win })=P(A \text { win }) \times P(B \text { win }) \\ & =\frac{15}{36} \times \frac{{ }^{12} C_1 \times{ }^{16} C_1}{{ }^{52} C_2}=\frac{5}{12} \times \frac{12 \times 16}{26 \times 51}=\frac{40}{663} .\end{aligned}$
