A letter is randomly chosen from the word EXCELLENT. Write each probability as a fraction, decimal, and a percent.

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not complete. A complete question is in the form:

A letter is chosen at random from the letters of the word EXCELLENT. Find the probability that letter chosen is i) a vowel ii) a consonant.

Solution:

The total number of letters found in the word EXCELLENT = 9

i) The number of vowel letters found in the word EXCELLENT = {E, E, E} = 3

Hence, probability that letter chosen is a vowel = number of vowels / total number of letters = 3 / 9 = 1 / 3

probability that letter chosen is a vowel = 1/3 = 0.333 = 33.3%

ii) The number of consonant letters found in the word EXCELLENT = {X, C, L, L, N, T} = 6

Hence, probability that letter chosen is a consonant = number of consonant / total number of letters = 6 / 9 = 2 / 3

probability that letter chosen is a consonant = 2/3 = 0.667 = 66.7%
