Question

68 students choose to attend one of three after school activities: football, tennis or running. There are 24 boys. 3 students choose football, of which 2 are girls. 27 students choose tennis. 16 girls choose running. A student is selected at random. What is the probability this student chose running? Give your answer in its simplest form.

Answer 1

total number of students = 68

boys = 24

football total = 3

running = 16

therefore probability = 16/68

which is = 4/17
