Question

The letters of the alphabet are written on cars and placed in a brown paper bag. What is the probability of drawing a vowel, replacing it, and then drawing another vowel?

Answer 1

25 / 676

Explanation:

There are 5 vowels in the alphabets, and there are 26 alphabets in total as a whole.

The probability of drawing a vowel kb first trial is going to be

5 / 26, total number of vowels and total number of alphabets as a whole.

Again, we're told to replace the picked vowel, and pick another vowel, so that will once again be

5 / 26.

To get the final answer, we multiply both answers by each other

5 / 26 * 5 / 26 = 25 / 676.

Therefore, the probability has been found to be 25 / 676
