HURRY

The table shows the number of boys and girls that have black, blonde, brown, or red hair color.
What is the probability that a student has brown hair? ( round to the nearest hundredth)

Black~ (boys)- 4 ( girls)- 5
Blonde~ (boys)- 4 (girls)- 6
Brown~ (boys)- 10 (girls)- 8
Red~ (boys)- 2 (girls)- 1

Respuesta :

here are 18 brown haired students out of 40 students 18/40=0.45
0.45 

Answer: 0.45

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given table, the number students have brown hair = [tex]10+8=18[/tex]

The total number of students =[tex]4+5+4+6+10+8+2+1=40[/tex]

Now, the probability that a student has brown hair is given by :-

[tex]P(Br)=\frac{\text{Students with brown hair}}{\text{Total students}}\\\\\Rightarrow\ P(Br)=\frac{18}{40}=0.45[/tex]

Hence, the probability that a student has brown hair is 0.45
