e).3/4
HELPP today plzzz!!!

Respuesta :

9 +3 =  12 students

9 are male
 1st = 9/12 = 3/4
2nd = 8/11

3/4 * 8/11 = 6/11

 Answer = D) 6/11

The probability that two student chosen at random is a male is 6/11.

What is the Probability?

Probability is the branch of mathematics concerning numerical descriptions of how likely an event is to occur, or how likely it is that a proposition is true. The probability of an event is a number between 0 and 1.

Here, Class contains 3 females and 9 males it means total 12 students.

Probability for having 1st student male = 9/12 = 3/4

Probability for having 2nd student is also male = 8/11

Overall Probability = [tex]\frac{3}{4} X \frac{8}{11}[/tex]

                                = 6/11

Thus, the probability that two student chosen at random is a male is 6/11.
