The results of the survey are shown in the two-way table below: Crime City Planning Health Care Male 118 239 458 Female 418 317 449 What is the probability that a person chosen at random from this survey is concerned about crime, given that they are male? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answer :

Probability that a person chosen at random from this survey is concerned about crime, given that they are male: P=?

P=118/815=0.144785276→P=0.1

Answer: The probability that a person chosen at random from this survey is concerned about crime, given that they are male is 0.1
