Answer:
0.376
Explanation:
Probability of male student [ P (MS) ] = 47% = 0.47
Probability male students majoring in Engineering [ P (E / MS) ] = 80% = 0.80
Probability that a student chosen is male & majoring in engineering
= P ( E ∩ MS )
As per conditional probability rule :
P (E / MS) = P ( E ∩ MS )
P ( MS )
So, P ( E ∩ MS ) = P (E / MS) x P ( MS )
= 0.80 x 0.47
= 0.376
Answer:
0.376
Explanation:
Percentage of male students in the class ; 47% = 47/100 = 0.47
percentage of male students majoring in engineering= 80% = 80/100 = 0.8
probability of randomly choosing a male majoring in engineering in the class;
P= 0.47 x 0.8 = 0.376
