There are 10 letters in the word "aspiration" and 5 of them are vowels. The probability of a randomly-selected letter being a vowel are 5/10 = 1/2 = 0.50.
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%
the answer is 1 out of 26
Q. A letter is chosen at random from the word STATistician.What is the probability that it is a vowel?What is the probability that it is T.
There are 26 letters in the English alphabet, of which 5 are vowels (a, e, i, o, u). Since each card is identical and there are 26 cards in the box, the probability of selecting any one card is 1/26. To find the probability of selecting two cards with vowels printed, we need to use the concept of conditional probability. The probability of selecting a vowel on the first draw is 5/26, since there are 5 vowels in the box. After the first card is selected and not replaced, there are only 25 cards left in the box, of which 4 are vowels (since one vowel has already been selected). Therefore, the probability of selecting a vowel on the second draw, given that a vowel was selected on the first draw, is 4/25. To find the probability of both events occurring (i.e., selecting two cards with vowels printed), we need to multiply the probabilities of each event together, since they are independent: P(selecting a vowel on the first draw) x P(selecting a vowel on the second draw, given that a vowel was selected on the first draw) = (5/26) x (4/25) Simplifying this expression, we get: (5/26) x (4/25) = 20/650 = 2/65 Therefore, the probability of selecting two cards with vowels printed is 2/65
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.
5/24, or five out of twenty four, or with numbers, five out of infinity
To work out probability you have to know the number of possible options, and how many of those options meet the criteria. In this case there are 26 possible options (all the letters) and 21 that meet the criteria (21 non-vowels). The probability is the number that match divided by the total number possible. In this case it would be 21/26. This comes out to approximately 0.80769. Thus the probability that a letter picked at random is not a vowel is 0.80769
4/11
What is the probability of the spinner landing on CorB
11 27
It is 19.2%
if you only consider the vowels to be aeiou, then the answer is that you have a 5 out of 26 (or .19%) chance.
