Answer:
50% probability that a randomly selected respondent voted for Obama.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have these following probabilities:
60% probability that an Ohio resident does not have a college degree.
If an Ohio resident does not have a college degree, a 52% probability that he voted for Obama.
40% probability that an Ohio resident has a college degree.
If an Ohio resident has a college degree, a 47% probability that he voted for Obama.
What is the probability that a randomly selected respondent voted for Obama?
This is the sum of 52% of 60%(non college degree) and 47% of 40%(college degree).
So
50% probability that a randomly selected respondent voted for Obama.
