Answer 1

P(Drive to school') = 3/5

Explanation:

Total students = 100

Number of studentsthat drive to school = sophomore (2) + junior (13) + senior (25)

Number of students that drive to school = 2 + 13 + 25 = 40

Number of students that donot drive to school = Total students - Numbers that drive to school

Number of students that donot drive to school = 100 - 40

Number of students that donot drive to school = 60

Probability that a random student do not drive to school = P(Drive to school')

Probability that a random student do not drive to school = Numbers that donot drive to school/total students

P(Drive to school') = 60/100

P(Drive to school') = 3/5
