Answer:

2/65

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a total of 26 chocolates, to begin with.

We have 5 of them that are nuts in them.

The probability of you picking the first nut chocolate from the box is 5/26.

The probability of picking the second nut chocolate from the box is 4/25 (because the first nut is gone).

To find the probability of both of them in a row, we multiply 5/26 and 4/25.

5/26 * 4/25 = 20/650, simplified.
