Answer: d) .137, .320, .357, .185

Explanation:

The total number of men in the study is 874 (120 + 280 + 312 + 162).

Divide each value by the total to find the probability:


\text{60-64 inches: }(120)/(874)=0.137\\\\\\\text{65-69 inches: }(280)/(874)=0.320\\\\\\\text{70-74 inches: }(312)/(874)=0.357\\\\\\\text{75-79 inches: }(162)/(874)=0.185
