Answer: The probability of getting I is 0.36.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

There are 11 letters in the word "MISSISSIPPI".

So, we need to draw an 'I'.

Number of I's in the above word = 4

So, Probability of getting an I is given by

[tex]\dfrac{\text{Number of I}}{\text{Total number of letters in the word}}\\\\=\dfrac{4}{11}\\\\=0.3636.......\\\\=0.\bar{36}[/tex]

Hence, the probability of getting I is 0.36.
