    0.71 to 2 decimal places.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The Probability that a letter A through G is drawn in 1 draw = 7/26.

    The probability that a different draw other A-G is made = 1 - 7/26 = 19/26.

    Probability (No A-G drawn in 4 draws) = (19/26) ^4 = 0.2852.

    Therefore, the probability that A-G is drawn at least once = 1 - 0.2852.

    = 0.71 to 2 decimal places.
