Question

what is the probability that a registered voter voted in the election? the probability that a registered voter voted in the election is approximately (round to three decimal places as needed.)

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate total registered voters

Total registered voters = Voted + Did not vote = $3171762+3444312$

Step2: Calculate probability formula

Probability of a registered - voter voting = $\frac{\text{Number of voters who voted}}{\text{Total number of registered voters}}=\frac{3171762}{3171762 + 3444312}$

Step3: Simplify the fraction

$\frac{3171762}{3171762+3444312}=\frac{3171762}{6616074}\approx0.480$

Answer:

$0.480$
