For a single draw from a deck of 52 cards, the denominator is 52 since there are 52 different cards that you could possibly draw.  Each of your questions has a different number of possible successful outcomes, namely the number of cards that are the 4 of spades, the number of diamonds plus the number of hearts, and the number of cards numbered 1 through 6 (hint:  there are 4 of each).  These are your numerators.  Remember to reduce your fraction if possible.\r<BR>\n" );
