∙ 11y ago
Probability is given as Desired Outcomes divided by total number of outcomes.
For the probability of picking a vowel, desired outcomes are : a,e,i,o,u (5)
Total no. of outcomes is the entire alphabet set from a to z (26)
Hence, the required probabilty is 5/26

What is the probability that the number 23 will be randomly picked out of 100?
Assuming then that there are 100 numbers, 1-100, the probability of the number 23 being randomly picked out of 100 is: 1/100 or 0.01.
How do you find the probability of a random point being chosen in a shaded region in a circle?
The probability of a single point being chosen is 0.The probability of a single point being chosen is 0.The probability of a single point being chosen is 0.The probability of a single point being chosen is 0.
What is the probability of a vowel being picked at randoms from the word probability?
The word 'probability' has 11 letters and 5 of them are vowels (including the 'y'). Therefore the probability of picking a vowel is 5/11.
If the probability of getting identical is 0.004 while the probability of fraternal twins is 0.023 then what is the probability that a person chosen at random will not be a twin?
1- P(identical) - P(fraternal) =1-0.004-0.023 =0.973 The probability of being a identical or fraternal twin plus the probability of not being a twin has to add to 1. so 1- probability of being twins=probability of not being a twin ;-)
What is true of a random sample?
Every member in the population has the same probability of being in the sample.Or, equivalently, every set of the given sample size has the same probability of being selected.

4/11
What is the probability of a card being drawn at random that is a 12?
As there are no 12 cards in a standard pack the probability is zero.

What does non-probability means?
A type of unit sampling where it is not known which of the units will be picked to be sampled, and where some of the units have a zero probability of being chosen.
If the probability of getting identical is 0.004 while the probability of fraternal twins is 0.023 then what is the probability that a person chosen at random will not be a twin?
1- P(identical) - P(fraternal) =1-0.004-0.023 =0.973 The probability of being a identical or fraternal twin plus the probability of not being a twin has to add to 1. so 1- probability of being twins=probability of not being a twin ;-)

What is the probability of a prime number being picked randomly from the number 49?
Since 49 is a composite, the answer is 0.
Five men in a group of 20 are graduates if 3 men are picked out of 20 at random i what is the probability that all graduates and ii what is the probability of at least one being graduate?
The probability that all will be graduates will be 5/20 x 4/19 x 3/18. This equals 0.0087719, or 0.877% The probability of at least one being a graduate is 1 minus the probability of none being graduates. That's 1-(15/20 x 14/19 x 13/18) = 1 - 0.39912280701754385964912280701754 = 0.600877 =60% Thus the probability of having at least one graduate is 60%
What is a random name?
This question is not very well phrased - it is not clear if you want an actual random name, eg:QuinceoterusA name that is random (weird) and quinceoterus is a weird nameorA name that is randomHannahbecause Hannah is not a weird name, but it is a random name, in the sense of random being any name, just one random one picked out, not being weird or anythingorYou COULD be talking about what is a random name, as in what is the definition of a random name, therefore, the definition of a random name isa name which is picked at random.So. There.
What is the probability that a letter chosen at random from the 26 letters in the alphabet would be in the word mathematics?
There are eight different letters in 'mathematics' - a, c, e, h, i, m, s and t. Since there are 26 letters in the alphabet, the chance of a randomly chosen one being a letter that's in mathematics is 8/26, or 4/13.
