A - choosing letter A first

$|\Omega|=P(26,2)=\dfrac{26!}{24!}=25\cdot26\\
|A|=1\cdot25=25\\\\
P(A)=\dfrac{25}{25\cdot26}=\dfrac{1}{26}\approx0.0385$

Answer:

A 0.0385

Step-by-step explanation:

probability for I letter to be a out of 26 letters = 1/26

We can convert this into decimal as

Probability that the first letter chosen is A =0.0385

Option A is right answer.
