All 26 letters of the alphabet are written on cards and shuffled. If one card is pulled out randomly, find the probability. (note Y is not considered a vowel for these problems)
P(A or Z) =
Some information seems to be missing. Probability of what? Why is it significant that "Y is not considered a vowel"?
From all letters of the alphabet:
P(A or Z) = 2/26
To find the probability of pulling either A or Z from the shuffled cards, we need to know the total number of cards and the number of favorable outcomes.
Total Number of Cards:
There are 26 cards in total since we have all 26 letters of the alphabet.
Number of Favorable Outcomes:
We have two favorable outcomes: Either the card pulled is A or Z.
Now, we can calculate the probability:
P(A or Z) = Number of favorable outcomes / Total number of cards
P(A or Z) = 2 / 26
P(A or Z) = 1 / 13
Therefore, the probability of pulling either A or Z from the shuffled cards is 1/13.
