Answer:

0.036

Explanation:

We can find the probability by dividing the number of people with type A blood by the total amount of people.

There are 900 people in total and 323 of them have type A blood.

323/900

= approximately 0.036

Answer: Choice B) 0.36

================================================

Work Shown:

323 people have blood type A

900 people are being sampled

323/900 = 0.35888888888889 approximately

This rounds to 0.36, which is the probability of picking someone with type A blood.

We don't use any other values given, so they are probably put in there as a distraction.
