Answer: Eleventh Grade

Step-by-step

The ratio of tenth graders to the school's total population is 86:255 = 33.7%.

The ratio of eleventh graders to the school's total population is 18:51 = 35.3%.

Since the probability of a student being in either tenth, eleventh, or twelfth grade = 1 = 100% (that is, certainty), then the probability of a randomly drawn student being in twelfth grade is (100-33.7-35.3)% = 31.0%.

When randomly choosing one student from the whole school, it is most likely (35.3%) that the student is in the eleventh grade.

liq [111]

Answer:

$\frac{17}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert a mixed fraction to a improper fraction, you have to multiply the denominator (2) by the whole number (8). 8 multiplied by 2 is 16. Then add the numerator (1). 16+1=17. That becomes your numerator, the denominator (2) stays the same.

I hope this helps!
