Answer:
[tex]\frac{29}{50}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{29}{50}[/tex] put into decimal form is 0.58 (aka 58%)
The person above me was correct but didn't have the answer in fraction form.
The probability that a randomly chosen person on the bus is an adult chaperone or a male student is 0.58.
We have the following data -
On a field trip there are 6 adult chaperones, 21 female students, and 23 male students on a bus.
We have to find the probability that a randomly chosen person on the bus is an adult chaperone or a male student.
What is the formula to calculate the probability of an event ?
The formula to calculate the probability of an event is -
P(A) = n (A) / n(S)
Where -
n(A) - Number of favorable outcomes.
n(S) - Number of elements in the sample space.
In the question given to us, we have -
n (A) = favorable outcomes = 23 + 6 = 29
n (S) = Elements in the sample space 23 + 21 + 6 = 50
Hence, the probability that a randomly chosen person on the bus is an adult chaperone or a male student is -
P(A) = [tex]\frac{n(A)}{n(S)}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{29}{50}[/tex] = 0.58
Hence, the probability of choosing will be 0.58.
