The probability that a randomly drawn man is a member of the choir is \boxed{25\% }..

Further explanation:

The probability is the chance of any event.

The probability can be obtained as the ratio of favorable number of outcomes to the total number of outcomes

\boxed{{\text{Probability}} = \frac{{{\text{Favorable number of outcome}}}}{{{\text{Total number of outcomes}}}}}.

Given:

There are 1000 people in a small town, 500 are members of choir. Out of which 100 are men.

There are 500 inhabitants that are not in a choir.

Explanation:

There are total 1000 members.

The number of men that are member of choir is 100.

There are 500 members in a choir and 100 members are men.

The total number of man is 300 + 100 = 400.

Consider an event A man is a member of choir.

Consider an event B that man is randomly selected.

The probability of event A can be calculated as follows,

P\left( {A \cap B} \right) = \dfrac{{100}}{{1000}}

The probability of event B can be calculated as follows,

P\left( B \right) = \dfrac{{400}}{{1000}}

The probability that a randomly drawn man is a member of the choir can be expressed as follows,

\begin{gathered}  {\text{Probability}} = \frac{{P\left( {A \cap B} \right)}}{{P\left( B \right)}} \\    = \frac{{\dfrac{{100}}{{1000}}}}{{\dfrac{{400}}{{1000}}}} \\    = \dfrac{{100}}{{400}} \\    = 0.25 \\    = 25\%  \\ \end{gathered}

The probability that a randomly drawn man is a member of the choir is \boxed{25\% }.

Virty [35]
To find the volume, multiply length x width x height.
So you multiply 6 x 9 x 4. 

So the volume of the display box is 216 inches cubed.
