The tiles in the bag are labeled A, B, C, D, E, F, G, and H. The vowels among these tiles are A and E.
There are a total of 8 tiles. The favorable outcomes (picking a vowel) are 2 (A and E).
The probability of picking a vowel can be calculated as:
\[
\text{Probability} = \frac{\text{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of outcomes}} = \frac{2}{8}
\]
Now, we can simplify this fraction:
\[
\frac{2}{8} = \frac{1}{4}
\]
Thus, the probability of picking a vowel is:
\[
\frac{1}{4}
\]
