Question

(HELP ASAP) A bag contains lettered tiles. The theoretical probability of choosing a vowel is 30%. The bag contains 42 consonants. How many tiles are in the bag?

Answer 1

Answer: I'm not so sure but my answer is 54 or 55

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of choosing a vowel is 30%, and there are 42 consonants, so we would set up an equation like this:

42 times 30% (0.30) = 12.6 (rounded to 12)

So we have 12 vowel and 42 consonants in the bag, the total tiles would be:

12+42= 54

* But in case your teacher rounded up to 13 (vowels), the answer should be 55. But the probability rounded up to 13 is very low.

Answer 2

55 your welcome pretty sure that’s it
