Answer 2

Hence, the chance of not drawing BLUE A is:

0.75

Explanation:

We are given a letter tiles as:

LETTERS:

O I S BLUE A BLUE A L P A

From the given letter tiles we see that:

Total number of tiles=8

Number of tiles that are BLUE A are: 2

Number of tiles that are not BLUE A are: 8-2=6

Hence, the chance or probability of not drawing BLUE A is calculated as:

Ratio of the number of tiles that are not BLUE A to the total number of tiles in bag.

⇒ Probability=6/8=0.75

Hence, Probability=0.75
