Question

Of the 84 people who answered "yes" to a question, 14 were male. Of the 73 people that answered "no" to the question, 12 were male. If one person is selected at random from the group, what is the probability that the person answered "yes" or was male? Round to the nearest thousandth.

Answer 1

The first step is to solve for how many females and males answered yes.
From what we know there are 14 males
\[84-14 = 70 (Females)\]
There are a total of 157 people who were quizzed so we can put it into a probability:\[14/157\]
You can then convert this into a decimal which is 0.089 (nearest thousandth)

Answer 2

26 out of 157 are male that means that the other 131 are female if im am correct that means that there is a 6.038% of drawing a guy and of drawing a yes out of the pile would be 53.5% chance
