Question 1075126: On the first day of school, the teacher randomly selects 1 of his 28 students and records the student’s gender. If there are 7 males and 13 females, what is the chance that a female will be selected? Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
Since there are 28 students and 13 of them are female, the probability that a female will be selected is . Then there is a probability that the student will be a male, and a probability that the student selected will be in some stage of the transgender process such that, at the time of the selection, the student was neither male nor female.
