Full question attached(original question isn't clear)

Answer:

0.075

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is calculated by dividing number of favorable outcomes by total number of outcomes

Now given number of junior Nutrition major and then freshman non-Nutrition major are 8 and 11 respectively

Probability of choosing junior Nutrition major and then freshman non-Nutrition major at random= 8/total of nutrition major × 11/total of non-nutrition major

=8/30×11/39

=4/15×11/39= 44/585 =0.075
