Answer:

[tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calcilate the probability of something to happen we need to knwo the total number of outcomes possible, in this case from 8 to 15, there are 8 numbers that can be drawn from the bag, if we want to draw only the number 12, there is only 1 possibility to draw it from the bag, then we just divide it:

[tex]Probability=\frac{outcome-desired}{total-number-of-outcomes}[/tex]

[tex]Probability=\frac{1}{8}[/tex]

[tex]Probability=12.5%[/tex]
