Each letter of the alphabet is printed on an index card. What is the theoretical probability of randomly choosing any letter except Z? Write your answer as a fraction or percent rounded to the nearest tenth.

Respuesta :

Answer:

25/26 or 96.2%

Step-by-step explanation:

In the alphabets, we have 26 letters

If we remove Z, we have A -Y which is 25 alphabets

The question requires us to find the theoretical probability of choosing any other letter that is not Z

Probability= ratio of other alphabets that are not z to the number of letters in the alphabets.

Probability = 25/26 (as a fraction)

Probability = 0.9615 x 100 = 96.2% (as a percentage and to the nearest tenth)
