There are 16 females and 20 males in a class. What is the theoretical probability that a randomly chosen student is female.

Respuesta :

16+20
=36 students

We know that there are 36 students in total, so now we can calculate the chance the student chosen is female.

16/36
=44.444....% or 4/9

The probability is 44.444....% or 4/9.
