Answer 1

Answer: The probablty is is 41221/26 or 0.00669%

Step-by-step explanation:

Drawing tiles from the bag at one time is mathematically equivalent to drawing one tile 4 times inculding the vowel, without replacement.

If we get one of these 4 letters on draw 1, then on draw 2, we'll have 3 possible successful draws out of the 25 tiles left.

This pattern continues down to draw 4. Since each draw is independent, we just multiply the probabilities together:
