To find the probability that a randomly selected male audience member is younger than 18, we need to look at the number of male audience members who are 17 and under and divide it by the total number of male audience members.
Number of male audience members who are 17 and under: 64
Total number of male audience members: 190
Probability = 64/190 = 32/95
