In the situation 'Each letter of the English alphabet is written on a scrap of paper and put in a hat p(j)= 1/26', the type of probability illustrated is classical or mathematical probability. This is because 1 represents the number of expected outcomes of the event while 26 represents the total number of outcomes.
