The Word "Mississippi" contains 11 letters in total. The consonants are M, S, and P, with M appearing once, S appearing four times, and P appearing twice, making a total of 7 consonants. Therefore, the probability of randomly selecting a consonant from the bag is the number of consonants (7) divided by the total number of letters (11), which is ( \frac{7}{11} ).
