There are 60 people in a class. 10 are women. if we form a committee by randomly choosing 5 people, what is the probability that there will be no women on the committee?

Respuesta :

To determine the probability that there will be no women, you need to find the probability of women and subtract it from the total

60 - 10 = 50

so you find the probability with the total number of people being 50, that way the women's probability is eliminated.

5 out of 50 multiplied by the original total of the people, 60

(5÷50)×60 = 6

Therefore the probability of randomly choosing 5 people, excluding women is 6
