Solution
In mathematical term “Congruence”,
Number of consonants = 6
Number of vowels = 4 (already calculated)
Tatal number of letters = Number of consonants + Number of vowels
= 6 + 4
= 10
Percentage of consonants = `"Numerical of consonants"/"Total number of letters" xx 100%`
= `6/10 xx 100%`
= 60%
Hence, percentage of consonants is 60%.
