Answer 1

Answer: Probability is 1/3

Step by step explanation:

The probability (P) of an event is:

`P=\frac{\text{Number of ways it can happen}}{\text{Total number of outcomes}}`

The probability that a randomly selected student has 0 siblings and is iiresponsible is:

`P=(6)/(6+3+4+5)=(6)/(18)=(1)/(3)`
