Using it's concept, it is found that there is a [tex]\frac{11}{17}[/tex] probability that a randomly chosen member of the Student Government Board is a graduate student or lives in on-campus housing.

What is a probability?

A probability is given by the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this problem, a total of 1 + 4 + 2 + 0 + 1 + 2 + 2 + 0 + 2 + 3 = 17 students were sampled.

Of those, 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 2 = 8 live in on campus housing, and 3 live off campus but are graduate students, hence there are 11 desired outcomes and the probability is given by:

[tex]\frac{11}{17}[/tex]
