    Step-by-step explanation:

    number of pennies = 5

    number of dimes = 26

    number of nickels = 18

    number of quarters = 12

    Total = 5 + 26 + 18 + 12 = 61

    Probability to take out a quarter = 12 / 61 = 0.1967

    Probability to take out a penny without replacement = 5 / 60 = 0.0833

    Total probability to take out a quarter and then penny without replacement

    = 0.1967 x 0.0833 = 0.0164
