The letter tiles cares are placed in a box, without looking hotels picks a letter tile from the box and records the result before placing it back. If he repeats the procedure 100 times how many times will the letter a tile be picked

Answer 1

The probability of picking the letter "a" tile each time is 1/26, since there are 26 total letter tiles in the box.

Therefore, after 100 picks, we would expect "a" to be picked approximately 100 * (1/26) = 3.85 times.

Since we can't pick a fraction of a tile, we would round this number to the nearest whole number.

So, the letter "a" tile would be picked approximately 4 times out of 100.
