(a) The probability P = .
(b) The probability P = .
(c) The probability P = . (June has 30 days, correct ?)
(d) The probability P = . (February has 29 days in a leap year . . . )
(e) Calculate how many days are there in a leap year before May, 1
31 + 29 + 31 + 30 = 121.

Honestly, I did not expect to get such a message . . .
Therefore, I placed the reference to Wikipedia article at the beginning of my post, where you can gather the needed knowledge.
