a presentation to the class. Which of the following is the probability the student picked will be a girl?
(1) 0.45
(3) 0.62
(2) 0.55
(4) 0.81

'Probability means possibility. It is a branch of mathematics that deals with the occurrence of a random event. The value is expressed from zero to one.'

According to the given problem,

Number of boys = 13

Number of girls = 16

Total number of students = 13 + 16

= 29

Probability = [tex]\frac{Favorable events}{Total number of events}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{16}{29}[/tex]

= 0.55

Hence, we can conclude, the probability of picking a girl is 0.55.
