Question

1. What is the probability that a randomly selected student from your group is a 9th grader?

Answer 1

Total students = 16

1. Total 9th graders = 3

Probability of being 9th grader = 3/16

2. Total that like comedy = 6

Probability = 6/16 = 3/8

3. 3 like action so 16-3 = 13 do not.

Probability = 13/16

4. 1 10th grader likes comedy out of 5 10th graders

Probability = 1/5

5. 0 out of 3 12th graders like comedy.

Probability = 0

6. 0 like action out of 3

Probability = 3/3 = 1

7. Yes the probabilities are different.
