P(E) = No. Of outcome / Total No. Of outcome
"ASSASSINATION" it contains 13 letters
1. Total No. Of outcome is 13
There are 6 vowels in these letter
P(E) = 6/13
2. Total No. Of outcome is 13
There are 7 consonants in these letter
P(E) = 7/13

Answer:
(i) 6 / 13
(ii) 7 / 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
An experiment consists of a letter chosen at random from the word ‘ASSASSINATION’ which consists 13 letters,
(6 vowels and 7 consonants)
∴ Sample points are 13.
Solving:
(i) Let E be the event that chosen letter is a vowel
E = {A, A, A, I, I, O}
∴ n(E) = 6
P(E) = n(E) / n(S) = 6 / 13
(ii) Let E be the event that chosen letter is a consonant
∴ F = {S, S, S, S, N, N, T}
P(F) = n(F) / n(S) = 7 / 13
