What is the probability that a randomly selected

calculate the probability that a randomly selected student is a
male. there are 16 males and a total of 57 students in the class. I
think it is 16/57 which is 0.2807 but i am not sure I have set up
the problem right.
Calculate the probability that a randomly selected student is
between 31-35 years of age, there are 8 out of the 57 students. how
do I set up this problem.
calculate the probability that a randomly selected student is
female between 60-65 inches tall, there are 24 out of the 57.How do
i set up this problem.
calculate the probability that a randomly selected student was born
in an even month, well there are 22 even months out of the 57
students /months. how do I set this problem up.
Calculate the probability that a randomly selected student weighs
between 161-180 pounds, if they are a female, there are 7 out of
the 57 students. how do I set this problem up.
also calculate the probability , is a female if they are at most 30
years of age, there are 27 out of the 57. I just want to know how
to figure these probability questions out. I really need yo know as
soon as possible please help me. Thank you Angel

Answer

I'm assuming that each of your questions is a separate entity and
not related to the other questions...aka, single event
probabilities.

For every single thing listed, all it is is the number of correct
answers divided by the total number of answers. For your first one,
16/57, that is correct. For the next it is 8/57, then 24/57, 22/57,
etc. It isn't any more complicated because the question gives you
the number of students that fulfill the requirement, which means
its just a simple percentage (like your first answer, 16/57, which
is 28.07%).
