A) 7 red out of 10 total would be 7 out of 10 = 7/10 = 0.7.

This would be the same as the baseball player.

B. 3 numbers out of 10 would be 0.3 this is not the same.

C. 1 suit out of 4 would be 0.25, this is not the same.

D. A coin has a 0.5 chance of landing in beads. This would not the the same.

The only true answer is A.
