Answer 1

The probability of picking a consonant is the ratio of the number of consonants to the total number of possible outcomes.

There are 4 consonants in the sample space: b, c, d, and f.
There are a total of 6 possible outcomes in the sample space.

Therefore, the probability of picking a consonant is 4/6, which simplifies to 2/3.

So, the answer is: Start Fraction 2 over 3 End Fraction.
