To determine which set of letters has equal chances of being selected, we need to consider the frequency of each letter in the word "MISSISSIPPI".
The letters and their counts are:
- M: 1
- I: 5
- S: 4
- P: 2
Now, we can analyze the options:
1. **M, I, and P**:
- M (1), I (5), P (2) - **Not equal chances**.
2. **M and I**:
- M (1), I (5) - **Not equal chances**.
3. **S and I**:
- S (4), I (5) - **Not equal chances**.
4. **M and P**:
- M (1), P (2) - **Not equal chances**.
Since none of the provided options consist of letters that have the same frequency, there's actually no correct choice among the provided responses.
However, if we had to choose among these, "M and P" has the closest frequencies but they are still not equal.
