Question

A letter is chosen from the word EXPERIMENT. What is the probability that it is "M"?

• A. $\frac{1}{10}$
• B. $\frac{2}{10}$
• C. $\frac{3}{10}$
• D. $\frac{7}{10}$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $\frac{1}{10}$

Here the total number of outcomes = 10 (E,X,P,E,R,I,M,E,N,T)
Number of favourable outcomes = 1 (M)
$\therefore$ Required probability = $\frac{1}{10}$
