Question

the people who responded to a survey reported that they had either brown, green, blue, or hazel eyes. the results of the survey are shown in the table.

eye color	number of people
green	6
blue	17
hazel	7

what is the probability that a person chosen at random from this group has brown or green eyes?
$\frac{3}{25}$
$\frac{7}{25}$
$\frac{13}{25}$
$\frac{17}{25}$

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate total number of people

$20 + 6+17 + 7=50$

Step2: Calculate number of people with brown or green eyes

$20 + 6 = 26$

Step3: Calculate the probability

The probability $P=\frac{26}{50}=\frac{13}{25}$

Answer:

$\frac{13}{25}$
