The probability of picking an 's' in the word Mississippi is 100% - you will always find one ... eventually.
However if you mean with single choice from the 11 characters of the word Mississippi, then the probability is 4 chances in 11 which is just over 36% or a probability of 0.363636 recurring.
My odd answer illustrates the need to pose questions without ambiguity.

Since there are four 5's in a deck of 52 cards, the probability of picking a 5 from a deck of 52 cards is 4 in 52, or 1 in 13, or about 0.07692.
1/6 if the letter is chosen at random.
You have a total of 11 letters in "mathematics" and you have 4 vowels (a,e,a,i) so the probability of drawing a vowel is 4/11. In other words if you were to consider the vowel's to be 1's and the consonants 2's. What is the probability of drawing a "1". There would be 4 1's and 7 2's. It would be 4/11
What_is_the_probability_of_spinning_a_free_on_one_spin_and_an_s_on_your_second_if_you_have_a_spinner_with_1_space_labeled_free_and_the_remaining_11_mississippi_with_one_letter_in_each.So, you would multiply 1/12 times 4/12 to get 4/144 or 1/36
There are no s's in a standard deck of cards, so the probability of selecting any s's, in any sequence of draws, in any strategy of replacement is exactly zero.
The probability is 1: it is a certainty. Otherwise the word would not be Mississippi!
A 1 out of 5 chance, or 20%
there are 4 1's or aces in a pack of 52 cards. Probability of picking an ace=4/52=1/13
Since there are four 5's in a deck of 52 cards, the probability of picking a 5 from a deck of 52 cards is 4 in 52, or 1 in 13, or about 0.07692.
There are four eSes in the word Mississippi.
There are two black 6's in a deck of cards, the probability of not picking one is 50/52 or 25/26, or 96.2%
2 numbers. few probabilities. Lets see. Number 1 probability: if your given numbers are this for example, 2 and 7. What is the probability of picking out 7? the Numerator is how many of that number is in the group. They are asking for 7? so how many 7's are in the group? 1. Then the denominator is how many numbers are in the group. There are 2 numbers in the group. so the probability of picking out a 7 would be 1/2. get it? if there were two 7's, then the probability would be 2/2 or 1. I hope I helped.
