Respuesta :

Let's take a look at the seventh graders table.

Seventh grade has a total of

[tex]12+9+4+5=30[/tex]

30 students.

Out of those 30 students, 4 play the drums. Therefore, the probability that a seventh grader chosen at random will play the drums is:

[tex]\frac{4}{30}\rightarrow\frac{2}{15}\rightarrow0.13[/tex]
