Question 1174701: Statistics collected over past years revealed that the percentage of students graduated from a given university who got a job within one year after graduation was 80% for students holding a degree in Science or Engineering, 70% for students holding a degree in Economics, and 60% for students holding a degree in Humanities.
Among students who are expected to graduate in the current academic year, 30% are enrolled in a Science or Engineering program, 30% in an Economics program, and 40% in a Humanities program.
What is the probability that any student who graduates in the current academic year will get a job within one year after graduation?

Hi
What is the probability that any student who graduates in the
current academic year will get a job within one year after graduation?
P = .30(.80) + .30(.70) + .40(.60) = .69
Wish You the Best in your Studies.

How the question is posed in your post, it MAKES no SENSE.
Had the question be posed correctly, it would ask about a randomly selected student --- not about "any student".
