Question

George believes the Art Club students at his school have an unfair advantage in being assigned to the art class they request. He asked 500 students at his school the following questions: "Are you in the Art Club?" and "Did you get the art class you requested?" The results are shown in the table below:

Art Club Not in Art Club Total
Received art class requested 100 265 365
Did not get art class requested 65 70 135
Total 165 335 500


Help George determine if all students at his school have an equal opportunity to get into the art class they requested. Show your work, and explain your process for determining the fairness of the class assignment process.

Answer 1

Answer: Not fair

Step-by-step explanation: Since the fractions and rations are unbelievably rigid, this question is no doubt going to the creaser side.

Answer 2

It's not right.

Students who are not already members of the art club have a better chance of receiving their preferred class assignment.
