Answer:

P (a vowel) =3/11

P (n or s) =2/11

P (not c )=9/11

Explanation:

A letter is randomly chosen from the word candlestick

P(vowel)=number of vowels/total number of letters

=3/11

P(n or s)= number of letters which are n or s/total number of letters

= 2/11

P(not c)=number of letters except c/total number of letters

= 9/11
