Sagot :

The given table is

Male Female Total

Drive 26 24 50

Did not drive 34 116 150

Total 60 140 200

From the table, total number of males and females = 200

number of guests that are males and did not drive = 34

Recall, Probability is expressed as

number of favorable outcomes/number of total outcomes

Therefore, the chances of choosing a guest who is male and did not drive to the party is

34/200 = 0.17

By converting to percentage, it is

0.17 x 100 = 17%
