Question

A letter is randomly chosen from the word BELL, and another letter is chosen randomly from the word BEEP. Draw the tree diagram to represent all the possible outcomes. The find the probability that both letters chosen are the same.

Answer 1

Answer:

Letters:

B = 2, E = 3, P =1, L = 2

Totally= 8 letter's

Possibility of drawing out the letter E is $\frac{3}{8}$

Possibility of drawing out the letter B is $\frac{2}{8}$

Possibility of drawing out the letter P is $\frac{1}{8}$

Possibility of drawing out the letter L is $\frac{2}{8}$

sorry! but I hope this helps.

Answer 2

Answer:

1 Answer. It depends on how they define "choosing from", I reckon, but indeed according to the natural interpretation (picking a letter uniformly at random), it should be 2/11 The sample space is of size 9, indeed, but not all elements have equal probability: b,i have each probability 2/11.
