Question 486516: Problem says this:
Each individual letter of the word TENNESSEE is placed on a piece of paper and all 9 pieces of paper are placed in a hat. If one letter is selected at random from the hat, determine the probability that the letter S is not selected. Explain.
Will someone help me a little bit, please? Thank you!
Interpret this as the probability of selecting one of the 7
non-S's from the 9 letters:
number of non-S's 7
P(non-S) = ————————————————— = ————
number of letters 9
