Answer 1

Answer:

1/8

1/4

1/8

1/8

1/8

1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability a letter would be picked = total number of the letter in the bag /sum of letters in the bag

1. v,r,y,w appear once. the numerator would be 1 and the denominator would be 8 = 1/8

e and l would appear twice in the bag, so the numerator would be 2 and the denominator would be 8 = 2/8 convert to its simplest form = 1/4
