AI explanation

When drawing with replacement, the draws are independent. There are 2 red kings in a 52-card deck, so the probability of drawing a red king on one draw is 2/52, or 1/26. Since the question only asks for the probability of drawing a red king on a single draw (as it says 'cards are red king' meaning a single red king is drawn), the answer is 1/26.
