You should answer 'yes' to the 'rm -r k*' questions.
The reason why the system is asking you for confirmation is just because there's an alias to the rm command defined inside /etc/bashrc which tells the system something like "when the user ask me to "deltree" a directory, ask for confirmation", so if you answer 'no', then you are not erasing anything inside tmp, which was the test I suggested.
