Answer 1

A. 1/4

There are a total of four possible combinations: turkey sandwich and soda, turkey sandwich and water, ham sandwich and soda, and ham sandwich and water. Out of these four options, only one combination is a ham sandwich and a bottle of water. Therefore, the probability of selecting a ham sandwich and a bottle of water is 1 out of 4.
