To solve this you must use a proportion like so...
The total number of students that can be chosen are 4,663. This number will represent the whole of one fraction in the proportion. We want to know what percent probability out of these students are engineer, medical doctor/surgeon. This would be considered the part of this fraction. Sum the number of engineering students (615) with medical doctors/surgeons (723) to find this number
723 + 615 = 1,338 students that want to be an engineer or medical doctor/surgeon
Percent's are always taken out of the 100. This means that the other fraction in the proportion will have 100 as the whole and x (the unknown) as the part.
Here is your proportion:
Now you must cross multiply
1,338*100 = 4,663*x
133,800 = 4,663x
To isolate x divide 4,663 to both sides
133,800/4,663 = 4,663x/4,663
28.7 = x
This means that there is a 28.7% of a student with the intent of becoming an engineer or a medical doctor/surgeon to be chosen at random
Hope this helped!

Answer:
The girls' basketball team is playing against the boys' basketball team. The coach chooses a captain for the girls' team and then chooses a captain for the boys' team.
Step-by-step explanation:
Two events are considered independent of each other when the probability that one event occurs doesn’t in any way affect the probability of the other event occurring.
An example is the probability of flipping a coin and rolling a die.
Choosing a captain for the male and female team won’t in any way affect the outcome of the match.
