at random to present, what is the probability that the student is a girl?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Answer is 0.444 (or) 4/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data representes

No.of boys = 20

No. of girls =16

Total students = 36 (20+16)

Therefore n(S)=36

[tex]let \: A \: be \: an \: event \: of \: selecting \: a \: girl \\ n(A) = 16 \\ to \: find \: p(A) \\ p(A) = \frac{n(A)}{n(S)} \\ = \: \frac{16}{36} \\ on \: cancelling \: we \: get \: \frac{4}{9} \: \: or \: 0.444[/tex]
