The table shows the total number of student applications to universities in a particular state over a period of 12 semesters. States base their decisions on data like this. Suppose they decide that if fewer than 200,000 students apply during 6 or more semesters, the state will make a special effort to promote university education. Using this data, what is the population proportion of semesters for which the number of student applications is less than 200,000?
