A letter of English alphabets is chosen at random. What is the probability that it is a letter of the word ‘MATHEMATICS’?
(a) `frac{4}{13}`
(b) `frac{9}{26}`
(c) `frac{5}{13}`
(d) `frac{11}{26}`
(a) `frac{4}{13}`
Explanation:
The Word ‘MATHEMATICS’ Has 8 Letters That are
= M,A,T,H,E,M,A,T,I,C,S
Number of Letters in word ‘MATHEMATICS’ = 8
Number of Letters in Alphabets = 26
So,
Required Possibilities = `8/26`
= `4/13`
= M,A,T,H,E,M,A,T,I,C,S
Number of Letters in word ‘MATHEMATICS’ = 8
Number of Letters in Alphabets = 26
So,
Required Possibilities = `8/26`
= `4/13`
