Answer:

3/ 8 ; 3/8

Explanation:

MATHEMATICS

vowels in mathematics = (A, E, I)

letters in mathematics = (M, A, T, H, E, I, C, S)

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

Required outcome = vowels in mathematics = 3

Total possible outcomes = letters in mathematics = 8

Probability of drawing a vowel letter tiles = 3/8

2.)

Spinner division :

Red = 4 ; white =2 ; green = 1 ; blue = 1

Total divisions = 8

Probability (landing on blue) = number of blue / total

P(landing on blue) = 1 / 8

P(landing on white) = 2/ 8 = 1/4

P(landing on blue or white) = 1/8 + 2/8 = 3/8
