Solution
In mathematical term “Transversal”,
Number of consonants = 8
Number of vowels = 3 (already calculated)
Total number of letters = Number of consonants + Number of vowels
= 8 + 3
= 11
Percentage of consonants = `"Numerical of consonants"/"Total number of letters" xx 100%`
= `8/11 xx 100%`
= 72.72%
Hence, percentage of consonants is 72.72%.
