You can put this solution on YOUR website! A class consists of 30 woman and 40 men. If a student is randomly selected, what is the probability that the student will be male?
---------------------------------
P( a student is a male) = (number of choices is men)/(number of all possible choices)
= (40C1)/ (70C1)
= 40/70
= 4/7
Hope it helps you.
