Answer:

2/33

Explanation:

1.Since a number cube has six sides, and the word mathematics has 11 letters, and there are four vowels in mathematics, the probability of rolling a 3 in a number cube is 1/6. The probability of choosing a letter that is a vowel in mathematics is 4/11.

2. You multiply them together. 1/6*4/11=2/33.

3. The answer is 2/33.
