<h3>Answer: 22/171</h3>

Explanation:

The table shows there are 22 million men who have 4 years of college (or more). This is out of 171 million people total.

So the probability we want is (22 million)/(171 million) = 22/171

We cannot reduce that fraction any further because 22 and 171 do not have any common factors (other than 1).
