To solve this problem we will use the following formula to compute the theoretical probability that an event occurs:


\frac{\text{favorable cases}}{total\text{ cases}}.

e) From the given table we get that there are 12 male students in Green club.

Since there are 100 students in total, we get that the theoretical probability of choosing a male student that is in Green club is:


(12)/(100)=(3)/(25).

f) To answer this question we will use the following formula:


P(A\text{ given B)=}\frac{P(A\text{ and B)}}{P(B)}\text{.}

From the given table we get that there are 22 female students in Huskies with Heart, and there are a total of 58 female students, therefore:


\begin{gathered} P(\text{Female and Huskies)=}(22)/(100)=(11)/(50), \\ P(\text{Female)}=(58)/(100)=(29)/(50). \end{gathered}

Therefore:


\begin{gathered} P(\text{Huskies given Female)=}\frac{P(Female\text{ and Huskies)}}{P(Female)} \\ =((11)/(50))/((29)/(50))=(11)/(29). \end{gathered}

Answer:

e)


(3)/(25)\text{.}

f)


(11)/(29)\text{.}
