Explanation:

a. Randomly selecting a red card =

B. Randomly selecting a 7, 8, 9, or 10 =


(4 * 4)/(52) = (16)/(52) = (4)/(13)

(have 4*4 card choice)

C. Randomly selecting the 6 of diamonds =


(1)/(52)

(only 1 card choice)

D. Randomly selecting a card that is not a king


1 - (4)/(52) = (48)/(52) = (12)/(13)

1 - all possibility that can select the king
