On each of five slips of paper, you wrote the words eggs, waffles, pancakes, fruit, and muffin. Every day, you choose one slip from a jar to help you decide what to eat for breakfast. You always put the chosen slip back into the jar. What is the probability of choosing eggs?

The answer is 1/5, or 0.2, because if you're always putting the slip back in, then there will always by 5 slips to choose from, therefore making the probability 1 out of 5. I hope this helps!
