A high school guidance counselor wants to find the probability that students who study geometry as freshmen will go on to study calculus before graduating. To do this, he has constructed a table, shown below, which shows the number of students who study geometry as freshmen in a given year, and the number of those students who study calculus before graduating.

Which year had the highest experimental probability that a freshman studying geometry would take a calculus class before graduation?
a.
2001
b.
2002
c.
2003
d.
2004

The experimental probability of a freshman studying geometry taking a calculus class before graduation was greatest in 2002.Option B is correct.

What is the probability?

The chances of an event occurring are defined by probability. Probability has several uses in games, in business to create probability-based forecasts.

The The experimental probability of a freshman studying geometry taking a calculus class before graduation is obtained by dividing the number of students taking calculus to the number of students of student taking statics.

Referred to the excel table in the attachment for the probability.

The experimental probability of a freshman studying geometry taking a calculus class before graduation in 2002 is found at;

[tex]\rm P_{2002}(\%) = \frac{512}{822} \times 100 \\\\ P_{2002}(\%) =62.29[/tex]

The experimental probability of a freshman studying geometry taking a calculus class before graduation was greatest in 2002.Option B is correct.

Hence,Option B is correct.
