Question

Use the following table of Registered Voters at Kensington College, Registered Voters at Kensington College 2009 2010 640 790 Democrats Republicans 960 410 Independents 320 300 11) What is the probability that a voter registered in Kensington College in 2009 was not a Republican?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

remember, a probability is ultimately always

desired cases / total possible cases

what are the total possible cases for our question here ?

all registered voters in 2009 :

640 + 960 + 320 = 1920

the desired cases (not republican) out of all these 1920 possibilities are

640 + 320 = 960

so, the probability for a registered voter to not be republican was

960 / 1920 = 1/2 = 0.5
