Anna mixes the letters S, E, L, E, C, T, E and D thoroughly, without looking, Mary draws one letter. Expressed as a fraction, decimal, and percentage, what is the probability that E will not be the letter mary selects

A 3/8 0.375 37.5%
B 8/5 1.6 16%
C 5/8 0.625 62.5%
D 8/3 2.667 26.667%

PLEASE HELP IM AT THE BRINK OF FAILING 7TH GRADE I HAVE A 52% IN MATH

Five out of eight letters are not E's.

5/8

Take it from there.

If all else fails, try studying your text.

Since I gave you the answer, there's nothing more I can do.

I don't get it I don't understand probability

I want the answers to the test because I don't understand it I looked at many things to get an answer but I still don't get it.

So I guess now I have to guess all the answers and hopefully get lucky. So I guess thanks for your help

Alright then thank you and bye.

If you don't have a textbook, try the following link. After that, reread Ms.Sue's responses.

The link explains how probability works, and with that knowledge, you will be able to solve other problems, without having to guess anymore, once and for all.

Sorry, forgot the link.

Will give two at different levels, just in case:
