Use the uniform probability model to find the probability of selecting a vowel letter from the word MODELS .
A. 1/3
B. 2/3
C. 1/6
D. 1/36
The word MODELS has 2 vowel letters and 4 consonant letters.
Probability of selecting a vowel letter = Probability of selecting either O or E = 1/6 + 1/6 = 2/6 = 1/3
Therefore, the answer is A. 1/3
are you sure
I apologize for the mistake in my previous response. Let's correct it:
In the word MODELS, there are 2 vowel letters (O and E) and 4 consonant letters (M, D, L, S).
Probability of selecting a vowel letter = Number of favorable outcomes (vowels) / Total number of outcomes
= 2 (vowel letters) / 6 (total letters)
= 2/6
= 1/3
Therefore, the correct answer is A. 1/3. Thank you for your patience.
