Explanation:

A compound event consists of two or more simple events. Drawing an ace and then a king from a deck of cards involves two card - drawing events. Rolling a 1 on a number cube and then tossing a coin and landing on tails combines a die - rolling and a coin - tossing event. Choosing a banana, then an apple, and then an orange from a fruit basket has three sequential fruit - choosing events. Drawing a red card from a deck and choosing a dime from a piggy bank are single events.
