Answer: 1/2

Explanation: There are 5 vowels and 5 consonants in the word believable. So to find the consonant, you have to do a fraction with consonant as numerator and the total number of letters as the denominator. Since there are 5 consonants and 10 letters in total, the simplest form will be 1/2.
