A letter is chosen at random from all the letters of the English alphabets. The probability that the letter chosen is a vowel, is :

Show SolutionHide Solution↓

All the letters of English alphabets have 5 vowels (a, e, i, o and u) and total number of English alphabets = 26.

Probability that letter chosen is a vowel = $\frac{\text{No. of vowels}}{\text{No. of alphabets}} = \frac{5}{26}$.

Hence, Option 2 is the correct option.
