Asked by Teddy

A popular word game starts with 100 letter tiles in a bag. The table shows the distribution for the vowels.

Vowel A E I O U
Number of Tiles 9 12 9 8 4

What is the probability that a vowel is selected on the first draw?

Just seeing if I get this.

42 vowels 100 letters
42/100 = 21/50

It keeps telling me to divide to get answer not getting this part
choices are 3/25 21/50 2/7 3/22
So I was thinking 2 goes into 42 - 21 times and 2 goes into 100- 50 times.
Am I on the right track?

So you have 42 vowels in the bag out of 100
prob(a vowel) = 42/100 = <b>21/50</b>

You had that, and it is one of the choices.
I don't see what the problem is here.
