Question: The letters C, O, M, P, E, T, I, T, I, O, N are written on cards and put in a hat. One card is selected at random. What is the probability that the card selected bears a consonant?

A ) 6 / 11
B ) 4 / 11
C ) 5 / 11
D ) 2 / 11

Steps to derive

1 There are six cards on which consonants ('C', 'M', 'P', 'T', 'N') are written.

2 Number of favorable outcomes = Number of cards having consonants = 6

3 Number of possible outcomes = Total number of cards = 11

4 Probability of drawing a card having consonant = Number of favorable outcomesNumber of possible outcomes = 6 / 11



Hence the right answer is Option A
