    hi,

    can anyone tell me if this probability is a possibility or are there too many external factors?

    There are 26 letters in the alphabet.
    If you add A to each other letter, 75% of the times this is > 5.
    If you add Z to each other letter, 50% of the times this is > 5.

    what is the probability of A + Z being > 5?

    is this too vague or is it impossible to determine as we do not have a result of all other factors and they each are dependent on 24 other unknown factors?

    Thanks.

    i think its more hassle than its worth on limited info so will give up on it

    too many external unknown factors with C, D, E, F etc
