Find the probability of selecting spade and then selecting ten.

Probability of selecting a spade, 12/52

If card is replaced, meaning placed back into the deck, you have 52 card selection once more, hence

Probability of selection a ten, 4/52

12/52 * 4/52 = 0.018 (rounded up from 0.0177), hope that's what he/she wants

Will answer the rest tomorrow!
