<span>We know that the person chosen at random likes comedy.
Let f be the number of females who like comedy.
Let m be the number of males who like comedy.
Let n be the total number of people who like comedy.
Note that n = m + f.
We can use the results from the table to find these values.
Now what is the probability that the random person is female?
The probability is f / n.
Basically, the probability is (the number of females who like comedy) divided by (the total number of people who like comedy).</span>
