Question

A research team obtained a clear sample of the common population of 1972 as 1000 boys and 972 girls. Find the probability of girls being picked

Answer 1

0.493

Explanation:

1: We have a total of 1972 people, and out of them, 972 are girls.

2: To find the probability of the girls being picked, it will be 972, out of the total 1972 people.

3: 972/1972 = 243/493, or 0.493

4: therefore the probability is 0.493 to 3 decimal places.
