(1 point)
The total number of students is 97 + 84 + 43 + 26 = 250.
The probability of randomly choosing a student whose favorite color is green is 84/250.
Therefore, the probability is 84/250, which simplifies to 42/125.
thats wrong
My apologies. Let me correct that calculation:
The probability of choosing a student whose favorite color is green is the number of students who like green divided by the total number of students.
Probability = Number of students who like green / Total number of students
Probability = 84 / 250
Probability = 0.336
So, the probability of randomly choosing a student whose favorite color is green is 0.336 or 84/250.
Still wrong
I apologize for the error in my previous responses. Let's correct that.
The probability of randomly choosing a student whose favorite color is green is the number of students who like green divided by the total number of students.
Number of students who like green: 84
Total number of students: 97 + 84 + 43 + 26 = 250
Therefore, the probability of randomly choosing a student whose favorite color is green is 84/250, which simplifies to 42/125.
