[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

To find the probability that the student chosen is NOT a boy, we need to find the number of students who are not boys and divide it by the total number of students.

Given that there are 15 boys and 5 girls in the class, the total number of students is 15 + 5 = 20.

The number of students who are not boys is 5 (the number of girls).

Therefore, the probability of selecting a student who is NOT a boy is 5/20 = 1/4 = 0.25.

So the correct answer is A) 0.25.
