Answer:

5/23

Explanation:

We want to find the probability that student chosen randomly from the class is a female who has an A

Probability = # of favorable outcomes / total # of possible outcomes

Here, the # of favorable outcomes would be females who have an A and total # of possible outcomes would be the total # of students in the class

The # of females who have an A is 5, so # of favorable outcomes = 5.

And in total there are 23 students ( 5 + 2 = 7 females and 4 + 12 = 16 males , 16 + 7 = 23 students total )

so # of possible outcomes = 23

Probability of choosing a female who has an A = 5/23
