Question

. In a class of 40 students, 8 are in the drama club and 12 are in the art club. If a student is selected at random, what is the probability that the selected student is in the drama club?

Answer 1

so the probability of selected student is in the drama club is 1/5

Explanation:

total students = 40

drama club= 8

art club= 12

we have to find probability of drama club

P (drama) = favorable outcome / total outcome

= 8 / 40

= 1/ 5

so the probability of selected student is in the drama club is 1/5
