What is the probability of choosing a vowel from the alphabets?
(a) 21/26
(b) 5/26
(c) 1/26
(d) 3/26

Solution:

We know that there are 26 alphabets

Out of them, we have 5 vowels

Hence, the probability is rational of favourable outcomes to total outcomes

Probability = 5/26

✦ Try This: What is the probability of choosing a non vowel from the alphabets? (a) 21/26, (b) 5/26, (c) 1/26, (d) 3/26

We know that there are 26 alphabets

Out of them, we have 5 vowels and remaining 21 non vowels

Hence, the probability is rational of favourable outcomes to total outcomes

Probability = 1 - 5/26 = 21/26
