Answer:

53.33% probability he calls a person from school.

Explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

What is P(call a person from school)?

He has 30 total contacts, of which 16 are from school. So


P = (16)/(30) = 0.5333

53.33% probability he calls a person from school.
