One letter is randomly selected from the word math and a second letter is randomly selected from the word jokes what is the probability that both letters are vowels?

Word 1) 'math' has one vowel letter among a total of 4 letters. The probability of randomly selecting the vowel letter 'a' is P(v) = 1/4. Word 2) 'jokes' has two vowel letters among a total of 5 letters. The probability of randomly selecting a vowel letter is P(v) = 2/5. The probability of randomly selecting a vowel letter from the first word and a vowel letter from the second word is: P(v1,v2) = 1/4 (2/5) = 2/20 = 1/10 = 0.10 = 10.0%
