Question

Students from Texas, New York, Washington, Florida, and Utah identified their area of concentration at various universities. The results are listed in the table.

One of these students is selected at random. What is the probability that the student is from the state of Washington under the condition that the student studies history?

Enter a number in the box.

Answer 1

Students who study history: 132

Number of students from Washington who study history: 20

The probability of Washington given history is 20/132. In simplest form, the probability is 5/33

Answer 2

The probability of a random student who is from Washington and studies history is $\frac{5}{33}$.

What is probability?

Probability is the chance of happening an incident or event. A probability is calculated by the ratio of the possible outcomes to total number of outcomes.

Given, the total number of students of History

= (30 + 17 + 20 + 32 + 33) = 132

The number of students from Washington who studies history = 20.

Therefore, the probability that the student is from the state of Washington under the condition that the student studies history is = $\frac{20}{132} = \frac{5}{33}$ .
