A popular word game starts with 100 letter tiles in a bag. The table shows the distribution for the vowels.
Vowel A E I O U
Number of Tiles 9 12 9 8 4
What is the probability that a vowel is selected on the first draw?
Just seeing if I get this.
42 vowels 100 letters
42/100 = 21/50
It keeps telling me to divide to get answer not getting this part
choices are 3/25 21/50 2/7 3/22
So I was thinking 2 goes into 42 - 21 times and 2 goes into 100- 50 times.
Am I on the right track?
Alright dude, really messed up, you just made half of some people fail the test, hope your proud of yourself
Anyways the real answers in connexus are
1. D 100
2. B 42
3. B 21/50
Ann's right if you're connexus
AnnLyn is the GOAT
Thanks Ann !
AnnLyn has the correct answers, still 100% right in 2022, for anyone who’s still here!!!!
So you have 42 vowels in the bag out of 100
prob(a vowel) = 42/100 = 21/50
You had that, and it is one of the choices.
I don't see what the problem is here.
