Answer 1

Answer:

7/15

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the probability the student is a senior

P( senior) = number of seniors / total students

                = 14 / ( 14+7+4+5)

               = 14/30

               = 7/15

Answer 2

Answer:

14/30 or 7/15

Step-by-step explanation:

probability = no. of senior students / total no. of students

probability = 14 / (14+7+4+5)

probability = 14/30

This can be simplified to 7/15.

Hope this helps!
