Respuesta :

1) The question is specifically asking about graduates. The total number of graduates is 2,610.

2) The total number of graduates on financial aid is 1,879.

3) So I think what you need to do is divide 2,610 (the total number of graduates) by the total of graduates on financial aid.

4) Using a calculator, I got 1.3.

Edit: I think MrBillDoesMath got it correct. But I appreciate you thanking me, despite my answer not being right.

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

.72

Discussion:

From the table, 1879 graduates students are receiving financial aid. Also from the table the total number of grad students is 2610. Hence the probability of a grad student receiving financial aid is   1879 /2610 = .72
