You have 8 scrabble tiles A, B, C, D, R, S, T, U in a bag. You reach in and randomly pick four of these tiles. What is the probability that you will be able to spell the word CATS with the tiles you picked?

Probability to pick 4 tiles which spell CATS will be .

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 8 scrabble tiles A, B, C, D, R, S, T, U in a bag.

Probability to pick 4 tiles C, T, A, and S out of 8 tiles =

=

=

=

=

= 70

So we can choose C, T, A and S tiles in 70 different ways but the probability to pick 4 tiles which spell CATS will be

=

Therefore, probability to pick 4 tiles which spell CATS will be .

the answer is 0.000652422

but if you ment to ask what is 6131 divided by 4, it is 1532.75.

step-by-step explanation:

a.) list the factors of 40.

1/2/4/5/8/10/20/40

b.) list the factors of 40 that represent the number of cans that could be on each shelf.

5

c.) how many different arrangements of cans are possible?

just one because if you put more on one shelf you will go way over 40 and the cabinet will probably break.

d.) what are the possible arrangements of the cans?

put 5 cans on each self to reach 40 cans in total.

e.) which arrangement uses all the shelves?

5 because you can put 5 cans on each shelf, and since there are 8 shelfs you are equally going to get 40 cans.
