4% of 250 pounds is 10 pounds
Answer – B (Tossing a coin)
A simple event is an event where only one experiment happens at a time (such as tossing a coin), and the event has only one outcome. When two events are occurring simultaneously(such as spinning a spinner and drawing a card from a deck of cards, drawing 3 cards from a deck of cards or tossing 4 coins), then it is no longer a simple event; it is a complex event.

I would use the theoretical method because each of the 52 cards is equally likely to be drawn.
There are 52 cards in a deck so there are 52 possible outcomes.
The event of interest is drawing a club or a diamond. There are 13 clubs and 13 diamonds. Add those up and that gives you 26 cards, which is the possible number of outcomes. knowing this we divide 26 by 52.
number of outcomes / total number of possible outcomes
26 / 52 = 1 / 2 = .5 = 50%
So the probability of this even is 1 out of 2 or you have a 50% chance of getting your club or diamond
