Answer:

0.61

Step-by-step explanation:

Pr (female) =  total number of females(n')/Total number of students(n)

Where P(female) = probability of selectinga female

Pr(female) = n'/n................. Equation 1

Given: n = 44 students, n' = 15+12 = 27 females

Substitute into equation 1

Pr(female) = 27/44

Pr(female) = 0.61.

Hence the probability of selecting a female is 0.61
