The total number of sample space in this item is calculated by adding up all the number of students given. That is,

   S = 600 + 400 + 300 + 200 = 1500

The probability is calculated with the equation below.

    P = n / S

where P is the probability,
          n is the number of sophomores, and 
          S is the total number of students

Substituting,
    
  P = 400 / 1500 = 4/15

ANSWER: 4/15
