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.

5 parts are shaded and 4 parts are white so:

There are 9 parts all together.

White Area Ratio =

$\frac{4}{9}$

Shaded Area Ratio =

$\frac{5}{9}$
