  1. Count Total Shapes: (a) Count total shapes in the bag to find the total number of ways to choose one shape.\newlineAssume there are ' extit{t}' total shapes in the bag.
  2. Count Squares: (b11) Count the number of squares in the bag to find the favorable outcomes for choosing a square. Assume there are ss squares in the bag.
  3. Count Circles: b2b^2 Count the number of circles in the bag to find the favorable outcomes for choosing a circle. Assume there are cc circles in the bag.
  4. Count Stars: ( extit{b33}) Count the number of stars in the bag to find the favorable outcomes for not choosing a star.\newlineAssume there are ' extit{r}' stars in the bag.\newlineFavorable outcomes for not choosing a star = total shapes - number of stars = trt - r.
  5. Calculate Probabilities: Calculate the probability for each event.\newlineProbability of choosing a square = st\frac{s}{t}.\newlineProbability of choosing a circle = ct\frac{c}{t}.\newlineProbability of not choosing a star = trt\frac{t - r}{t}.
