Question

find the probability that a randomly selected student drives to school. (see attachment, probability models)

p (drive to school) = x/x
remember to reduce your answer

Answer 1

Answer:

2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

P(drive to school) = number of students that drive to school ÷ total number of students

P(drive to school) = 40/100

P(drive to school) = 2/5

Answer 2

Answer:

The probability would be:

(number of students drive to school)/(total number of selected students)

• The number of students who drive to school can be calculated as $2+13+25=40$

• The total number of students is stated as 100.

Therefore, the probability would be:

$\frac{40}{100}=\frac{4}{10} =\frac{2}{5}$
