Question

Jennifer writes the letters M-O-N-T-A-N-A on cards and then places the cards in a hat. What are the odds in favor of picking a vowel?
3:7
4:7
3:4
4:3
Is it 3:4???

Answer 1

3 vowels / 7 letters

Answer 2

oof, stuped me! thank you Damon

Answer 3

You are welcome.

Answer 4

Odds in favour of some event = prob(the event) : prob(not that event)

prob(a vowel) = 3/7
prob(not a vowel) = 4/7

odds in favour of a vowel = 3/7 : 4/7 = 3 : 4

Answer 5

whoops sorry, I read probability, not odds
