Drop off Total

Seventh Grader 0.44 0.12 0.56

Eighth Grader 0.11 0.33 0.44

Total 0.55 0.45 1

    The probability that a student is in seventh grade, given that he/she is dropped off by parents is option C) 0.22

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The total probability of students in 7th grade = 0.56 The probability of 7th grade students dropped by parents = 0.12

    P (student is in 7th grade student is in seventh grade) = P (students in 7th grade) / P (7th grade students dropped by parents).

    ⇒ 0.12/0.56

    ⇒ 0.22
