A survey asked people of different ages whether they get their news by reading the paper. What is the probability that a person surveyed is under and does not get the news by reading the paper?

In this table, you have to look at multiple things in the table. So you have to look at where it says Under 40 and that don't read the paper. So according to what I learned with this, you would have to do 36/40 and then get 0.9 which would be in percent form: 90 %.

I would recommend looking at another person's response also, before you submit this question. But hope this helps!

The probability that a person surveyed is under and does not get the news by reading the paper is A; 90%.

What is the probability?

Probability refers to a possibility that deals with the occurrence of random events.

The probability of all the events occurring need to be 1.

P(E) = Number of favorable outcomes / total number of outcomes

So,

P(a person is under 40 and doesn't get the news by reading the paper)

= 36/40

= 0.90

= 90 %

Hence, option A is correct.
