Question

Mr. Smith recorded how many students were wearing white chiefs and how many were wearing non-white shirts. He put the data into a two- way frequency table.

What is the probability that a randomly selected will wear a non-white shirt??

A. 11/16
B. 8/28
C. 12/28
D. 19/28

Answer 1

D

Explanation:

The total is 28, and the non white shirts are 19

Answer 2

D. 19/28

Explanation:

He is selecting a random student from the total number of all 28, so that's our denominator. It doesn't specify boy or girl, so it could be either. The total number of students wearing non-white shirts is 19. 19/28
