A letter of English alphabet is chosen at random. Determine the probability that the chosen letter is a consonant.

Answer»

Total number of English alphabets is 26. 

Total consonants in English alphabet are 21. 

One letter of English alphabet is chosen at random. 

∴ the probability that the chosen letter is a consonant

\(\frac{Total\,consonant\,in\,english\,alphabet}{Total\,number\,of\,english\,alphabets}\) = \(\frac{21}{26}\).

Hence, the probability that the chosen letter is a constant is \(\frac{21}{26}\).
