Answer 1

Given:
900 students
35% are on the honor roll
63% have part-time jobs
26% are on the honor roll and have part-time jobs

What is the probability (rounded to the nearest whole percent) that a randomly selected student is on the honor roll, given that the student has a part-time job?

honor roll: 35%
part time job: 63%

35% x 63% = 22.05% or 22%
