Question

Each of the letters of the word ALABAMA are written on a piece of paper and then put into a bag. A piece of paper is drawn at random. What is the theoretical probability, as a decimal, of drawing an A? Round the decimal to the nearest hundredth.

Answer 1

Answer: 3/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability = number of ways of expected outcomes/ total number of possible outcomes

From the question, ALABAMA is a seven lettered word, therefore, total number of possible outcomes = 7

No of expected outcomes=3

Probability of drawing an A in Alabama= 3/7
