The elements in the sample space that are consonants are b, c, d, f. There are 4 consonants out of 6 total elements in the sample space.
So, the probability of picking a consonant is 4/6.
Simplify this fraction to its simplest form:
4/6 = 2/3
Therefore, the probability of picking a consonant is 2/3.
