You're playing a game where you defend your village from an orc invasion. There are 3 characters (elf, hobbit, or human) and 5 defense tools (magic, sword, shield, slingshot, or umbrella) to pick from.

If you randomly choose your character and tool, what is the probability that you won't be a hobbit or use an umbrella?
