Respuesta :

As the probability is about the people who is 21 or female, we have to know how many of these we have.

• People with age 21

[tex]1679+1627=3306[/tex]

• Female

[tex]4517+1553+1627=7697[/tex]

Now, we have to know the total data:

• Total

[tex]4746+4517+1625+1553+1679+1627=15747[/tex]

Finally, to get the probability, we have to divide the data we want by the total data.

[tex]P=\frac{(3306+7697-1627)}{15747}[/tex][tex]P=\frac{9376}{15747}[/tex][tex]P=\frac{9376}{15747}[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]P=\frac{9376}{15747}\approx0.595[/tex]
