Answer:
0.25
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>there are four people being considered for the position</em>
total=4
<em>Three of the applicants are over 60 years of age</em>
4(total) - 3 (over 60 years)= 1 below 60 years
<em>Two are female</em>
4(total) - 2 (female)= 2 male
<em>only one female is over 60</em>
2(female)-1 (female over 60)= 1 female below 60
<u>then the four candidates are</u>
<u>1. female over 60</u>
<u>2. female below 60</u>
<u>3. male over 60</u>
<u>4. male over 60</u>
probability that the candidate is over 60 and female =1/4=0.25
