Question 1116109: Giving a test to a group of students, the grades and gender are summarized below
A B C Total
Male 10 4 9 23

If one student is chosen at random,

There are 49 total students.
There are 9 males that got a C.
The chance that the student is a male with a C is,
P%28M%2CC%29=9%2F49
So the complement is that the student was not (a male with a C).
P=1-P%28M%2CC%29
P=49%2F49-9%2F49
P=40%2F49
