Can I suggest a possible slight improvement to the wording? If you randomly select a letter from this sentence the chances of it being an e are X in Y "select" could also be "choose" or "pick" On Tue, Dec 10, 2019 at 5:06 PM Éric Angelini <bk263401@skynet.be> wrote:
Thank you Allan -- here is the correction:
« If you randomly draw a letter in this sentence the chances of getting an E are thirteen in eighty-two. »
... The "FOUR" letter challenge is still open!
« The odds of picking at random the four letters F, O, U, R in this sentence and in that order are Y in Z. »
Best, É.
