In the word MODELS, the vowels are O and E.
The probability of selecting O is 1/6, and the probability of selecting E is also 1/6.
Adding these probabilities together, we get: 1/6 + 1/6 = 2/6 = 1/3.
Therefore, the probability of selecting a vowel letter from the word MODELS is 1/3.
So, the answer is: Start Fraction 1 over 3 End Fraction
