Unfortunately, the number of students enrolled is not known.  This must be known to calculate a numerical probability.

Suppose that there are 1000 students at the university.  Then the probability that a given student picked at random is taking an art course is 17/1000, or 0.017.

Hopefully you have a calculator capable of calculating binomial probability (which is what is involved here).

The following function should give you your answer:

binompdf(1000, 0.017, 13) = 0.0657, or roughly 7%.  The probability that 13 out of 1000 students will be taking an arts course during a given year is roughly 7%.

What part of 40 is 16? *not precent
podryga [215]

By definition of ratios, if you consider 16 elements out of a total of 40 elements, you are considering the 16/40 of the total.

You may simplify this ratio, since both numerator and denominator are multiple of 8:

\dfrac{16}{40} = \dfrac{2\cdot 8}{5\cdot 8} = \dfrac{5}{8}
