The probability of getting e's not next to each other is 0.05.
Probability is defined as the ratio of the number of favourable outcomes to the total number of outcomes in other words the probability is the number that shows the happening of the event.
Probability = Number of favourable outcomes / Number of sample
Given that the letters of the word `sixteen' are randomly arranged.
The arrangement of the e's not to come next to each other is, 3! and the total arrangement will be 5!
The probability will be calculated as,
P = (3!/5!)
P = (3x 2) / (5x4x3x2x1)
P = 1 / 20
P = 0.05
Therefore, the probability of getting e's not next to each other is 0.05.
