Answer:
The correct answer is 0.4559.
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of degrees in mathematics given by U.S colleges and universities in the most recent year = 16,071
73% were bachelor's degrees= 73% of 16071 = 11731
Women who earned the bachelor's degree = 48% of 11731 = 5630
21% were master's degrees= 21% of 16071 = 3374
Women who earned the masters's degree = 42% of 3374 = 1417
The rest degree were doctorates= 16071 - 11731 - 3374 = 966.
Women who earned the doctorates degree = 29% of 966 = 280
Total number of women who got mathematics degree = 280 + 1417 + 5630 = 7327.
We need to choose a mathematics degree at random and find the probability that it was awarded to a woman
Probability = = 0.4559
