You can put this solution on YOUR website! What is the probability that the first two letters of a 3 letter license plate are consonants followed by a vowel?
----
# of vowels: 5
# of consonents: 21
-------
Pattern: CCV
# of that pattern: 5*5*21 = 210
---
# of possible patterns: 26^3
----
P(CCV) = 210/26^3 = 0.0119
