Did you getr 56 for npart (i) ?
If so, find the number of selections that include P, either by assuming that P is selected and then selecting 2 from the remaioning 7 letters, or by finding the number that do not include P and subtracting from 56. Probability of selecting P is number of selections including P divided by total possible number of selections.

Simple way to think about it
The probability of getting P is 1/8
There are three ways in which this can be achieved as you can pick P first time, or second time, or third time

I'd say binomial probability where n=3 and p=0.125
