The voter is a Republican.
Incorrect: Your answer is incorrect.
Age Republican Democrat Independent Other Total
18–28 205 432 98 112 847
29–38 311 301 109 83 804
39–49 250 251 150 122 773
≥50 272 283 142 107 804
Total 1038 1267 499 424 3228
The probability that a randomly chosen voter from the survey will be a Republican is:
$$P(\text{Republican})=\frac{\text{Number of Republican voters}}{\text{Total number of voters}}=\frac{1038}{3228}\approx0.32$$
Rounded to the nearest hundredth, the probability is 0.32.
