Answer: Flipping a coin, or drawing a card suit (spades, hearts, clubs, or diamonds), either of those works.

Step-by-step explanation: A compound event is the combination of two or more simple events (with two or more outcomes). The probability of drawing a heart, replacing the card, then drawing a spade. In a compound event, the numerator ("number of times it can occur") will be greater than 1.
