Answer:


Pr = 7\%

Explanation:

Given

See attachment for graph

Required

Find P(Junior|Male)

To do this, we first calculate the total students.


Total = 4 + 6 + 2 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 6 + 3


Total = 30

Next, select the value in the cell that intersects Male and Junior


Male\ and\ Junior = 2

Hence, the probability is


Pr = (Male\ and\ Junior)/(Total)


Pr = (2)/(30)


Pr = 0.067

Express as percentage


Pr = 0.067*100\%


Pr = 6.7\%

Approximate


Pr = 7\%
