Question

The game of Scrabble has 100 tiles. The diagram shows the number of tiles for each letter and the​ letter's point value. One tile is drawn from​ Scrabble's 100 tiles. Find the probability of selecting an O or a V.

Answer 1

Answer:

10%

Step-by-step explanation:

In the image attached below, we can see that there are

8 tiles of letter O

2 tiles of letter V

This means that there are 10 total tiles of the letters that you want to get (O and V). Since there are a total of 100 tiles we need to divide this value by 100 to get the probability of getting one of these tiles.

10 / 100 = 0.10 or 10%

Finally, we can see that the probability of selecting a O or a V is 10%
