Probability always comes down to
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28favorableOutcomes%29+%2F+%28totalPossibilities%29\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "The total possibilities = 23+18 = 41 people to choose from.
\n" ); document.write( "The favorable outcomes are the 23 where you choose a woman.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Probability = 23/41
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "\"23%2F41+=+.561\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Done.
