Question

What is the probability that client A, the newborn you’re considering for a 30-year policy, lives to be 30 years old? Client A is a non-Hispanic white male, so look in table 14.

Answer 1

Using the probability concept, it is found that there is a 0.97555 = 97.555% probability that client A lives to be 30 years old.

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes, that is:

$p = \frac{D}{T}$

In this problem:

• Out of 100,000 clients, 97,555 lives to age 30, hence $D = 97555, T = 100000$

Then:

$p = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{97555}{100000} = 0.97555$

There is a 0.97555 = 97.555% probability that client A lives to be 30 years old.
