Question

Wendy wanted to understand whether students at her school were in favor of an extended school day. She surveyed some students and displayed the results in the table below:
If the principal randomly selects a student in grade 12 from this survey, what is the probability that the student is in favor of extending the school day?

Answer 1

`If the principal randomly selects a student in grade 12`

so this means we focus on just the "grade 12" row. No other rows will be looked at here

Answer 2

`... what is the probability that the student is in favor of extending the school day?"`

find the number in favor (who also happen to be in grade 12) then divide that number by the total number in grade 12

Answer 3
