probability = # of desirable outcomes

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "19%=19/100 (fraction form)
\n" ); document.write( "so, the odds of completing 4 years of college=
\n" ); document.write( "The numerator is the same which is 19. \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The denominator is: 100-19 = 81. \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The answer is 19/81.
\n" ); document.write( "= 0.234568\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "= 23.4568%
\n" ); document.write( "(rounded to a whole number)=23%\r
