Given

To find the probability that a randomly selected club member reads about 1 hour per week and prefers paperback books.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

The total number of number of members who reads about 1 hour per week is, 6+3=9.

Then,


\begin{gathered} P(members\text{ who prefer paperback books})=(3)/(9) \\ =(1)/(3) \end{gathered}

Hence, the answer is 1/3.
