It seems like you are mostly talking about cardinality, or proofs of problems pertaining to them, and the person you are responding to is saying they struggle with combinatorics
To formulate the probability of B happening, for example, you have to make an educated guess. Create a functional equation that map A (all possibilities) to B (desired possibility). Then you make a ratio-fraction with the equation in the numerator and set A in the denominator. Using Algebra, try to eliminate references to A in both the numerator and denominator to give you an educated guess of what the probability is.
