Question

prison education in a federal prison, inmates can select to complete high school, take college courses, or do neither. the following survey results were obtained using ages of the inmates. choose a prisoner at random. find the following probabilities. round the answers to at least three decimal places. your answer part: 0 / 3 part 1 of 3 the probability that the prisoner does not take classes is

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate total number of inmates

Total = $59 + 107+447+26 + 32+354$
$=1025$

Step2: Calculate number of inmates who do not take classes

Number of inmates who do not take classes = $447+354 = 801$

Step3: Calculate the probability

Probability $P=\frac{801}{1025}\approx0.805$

Answer:

$0.805$
