There are 11 letters in the word mathematics. 2 of those 11 are A's. Probability is therefore 2/11.
The probability is 2/11.
Since the word "probability" contains only letters, then the probability of choosing a letter from the word "probability" is 1, i.e. it is certain to happen.
2/11
Probability of choosing a consonant from math = 3/4
The probability is 1. The letters in the word mathematics are all constants, not variables!
1/6 if the letter is chosen at random.
Probablity of picking up 3 vowels from the word MATHEMATICS Each of the letters in the word MATHEMATICS is on a letter tile in a bag
The sample space consists of the letters of the word "PROBABILITY" = {P,R,O,B,A,I,L,T,Y}
The odds are 2/11 (two out of eleven), or 18.18%.
The sample space is {m, a, t, h, e, i, c, s} which, curiously, is also the sample space for choosing a letter from my user name!
If picked at random, the answer is 2/11.
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.
