There are only 2 vowels in the set of tiles (I and O) out of a total of 6 tiles, so the probability of picking a vowel is 2/6, which simplifies to 1/3. Therefore, the probability that Abby picks a vowel is 1/3.

The sample space of an experiment is S={1,2,3}. Each outcome is equally likely to occur with a probability of 1/3. What is the probability of picking number 2 or 3? Write your answer in the simplest form of a fraction.(1 point) bot

Since each outcome is equally likely to occur, the probability of picking number 2 or 3 is the sum of the probabilities of picking each number individually. Therefore, the probability of picking number 2 or 3 is:

P(2 or 3) = P(2) + P(3) = 1/3 + 1/3 = 2/3

Therefore, the probability of picking number 2 or 3 is 2/3.

To find the probability of picking a vowel, we need to determine the number of vowel tiles and the total number of tiles in the box.

There is only one vowel in the given set of tiles: the letter 'O'. The total number of tiles in the box is 6.

Therefore, the probability of picking a vowel is 1 out of 6:

1/6
