I don't really get this probability stuff... like this question is so confusing.


Find the probability that the name of a month of the year, chosen at random, begins with a consonant.
 
Cm'on, this is a very basic question. It is not confusing, nor is it meant to be. Did you even attempt it?

How many months are there in total? How many months begin with a consonant?

The ratio of the total months to the months that begin with a consonant will be your answer.

You have the right idea, Miniputtz....but the ratio should be

Code:
# of months beginning with a consonant
-----------------------------------
total number of months
