The table shows the results of a survey of college students. Find the probability that astudent's first class of the day is a humanities class, given the student is male. Round to the nearest thousandth. First Class of the Day for College Students.

Answer 1

You need to find the total of students:

$95+80+95+95+65+55=485$

As the number of male students that have humanities class is 95.

The probability that student's first class of the day is a humanities class, given the student is male is: 0.196

$P=\frac{95}{485}=0.1958\approx0.196$
