Practice makes perfect

Let's first list the possible numbers and the letters for the first character of the password. 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z As we can see there are 36 possible outcomes, 10 numbers and 26 letters, for the first character of the password. 21 of these outcomes are the consonants. With this, we can find the probability by dividing the favorable outcomes by the possible outcomes. Probability=Favorable Outcomes/Possible Outcomes=21/36 The correct option is H.
