if one student is chosen at random,
find the probability that the student got a b:
find the probability that the student was female and got a "c":
find the probability that the student was female or got an "b":
if one student is chosen at random, find the probability that the student got a 'b' given they are male:

P(Got a B) =

P(Female AND got a C) =

P(Female or Got an B =  

P(got a 'B' GIVEN they are male) =  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

       ABCTotal

Male618327

Female13201245

Total19381572

We know that the probability = The number of favorable outcomes ÷ The total number of possible outcomes.

Total number = 72

1) If one student is chosen at random, Find the probability that the student got a B:

Got B = 38

P(Got a B) =

Simplifying the above probability, we get

P(Got a B) =

2) Find the probability that the student was female AND got a "C":

Female AND got a C = 12

P(Female AND got a C ) =

Simplifying the above probability, we get

P(Female AND got a C) =

3) Find the probability that the student was female OR got an "B":

Female OR got an B = Total number of female + students got B - Female got 20

= 45 + 38 - 20

= 73 - 20

= 63

P(Female OR got an B ) =  

P(Female or Got an B =  

4) If one student is chosen at random, find the probability that the student got a 'B' GIVEN they are male:

Total number of students who got B  = 38

Student got a B given they are male = 18

P(got a 'B' GIVEN they are male) =  

P(got a 'B' GIVEN they are male) =
