Question

The letters in VIRGINIA are each written on a separate card. Mark picks one card at random, keeps it, and then picks a second card. What is the probability that he picks an "I" and then picks a consonant?

3/14


3/16


1/4


2/7

Answer 1

okay I would say 1/4

Explanation:

the originally eight letters, and then you take one out so there's seven and then your chances of getting the I are two so that's 2/7. then there's only one consonant the R so 1/4.
