Answer 2

Answer and Explanation:

(Answer): P = 7 / 10 or 0.7.

(Explanation): The word EXPERIMENT has the same letters as EMPIRE. There are 3 E's, 1 M, 1 P, 1 I, and 1 R, making it 7. Thus the probability is 7 / 10 or 0.7.

One point to note is to not count the E at the end, as it repeats and gives you the wrong answer.
