Lidia keeps eight cards with the picture of a tomato and four cards with the picture of a carrot on a table face down, so the pictures are hidden. She mixes up the cards then turns over one card and finds the picture of a carrot on it. She removes this card from the table and turns over another card. What is the probability that the card Lidia turns over has a carrot on it? fraction 3 over 12 fraction 3 over 11 fraction 7 over 12 fraction 7 over 11
