To find the probability of a bag containing the Word Scramble book, we can use a tree diagram.
First, let's list all the possible outcomes for each category:
Books:
- Crossword Puzzles
- Word Searches
- Word Scrambles
Games:
- Checkers
- Chess
Additional Games:
- Tile Game
- Board Game
- Drawing Game
Next, we can visualize these outcomes using a tree diagram. Start with the "Books" category and branch out to the "Games" and "Additional Games" categories:
```
Books
/ \
Word Scrambles \
/ \
Checkers Chess
/ | \ / | \
Tile Board Drawing Tile
Game Game Game Game
```
From the tree diagram, we can see that there are 9 total possible outcomes. Since we are interested in the probability of getting the Word Scrambles book, we count the number of outcomes where Word Scrambles is selected, which is 1.
Therefore, the probability of a bag containing the Word Scrambles book is 1 out of 9, or 1/9.
