Answer:

1/4

3/8

5/8

2/5

Explanation:

From the table :

1.)

P(9th grade) = (9th grade total / total) = 4 / 16 = 1/4

2.)

P(comedy) = (comedy total / total) = 6 / 16 = 3/8

3.)

P(not action) = 1 - P(action) = 1 - (action total / total) = (1 - 6/16) = 1 - 3/8 = 5/8

4.)

P(comefy | 10th grade) = P(comedy n 10th grade) / P(10th grade) = 2 / 5
