Molly will win a prize if she picks a letter A.

What is the probability that Molly picks a letter A from the bag?

Give your answer as a fraction in its lowest terms.

Answer 1

It would be 1/4 because there are 2 A out of 8 letters. So you have 2/8 then you see if 2 can go into 8 and it can 4 times so the 2 changes to a 1 and the 8 changes to a 4
