Illogical

From the firebox advert. The card on the top of the advert contains the following text:

Between all the distractions and parties at university. I did manage to fit in a few 
experimental psychology lectures. One of the most interesting things i learned was how 
at heart, people arent as logical as they think. Try this problem: 

Each of these cards has a letter (A or K) on one side and a number (2 or 7) on the reverse. 
If i told you there was a rule stating that a card with A on one side will have a 2 on the 
reverse, which two cards would you turn over to find out if the rule was true

The cards displayed on the card are

A K 2 7

The answer is A and 2.
