The driver is more likely to be male because the probability is greater than 0.5. D. The driver is more likely to be female because the probability is greater than 0.5

Explanation / Answer

from above table:

a) probability that 16 to 20 years given female =2450/15816=0.155

b) probability that female given 16-20 years old =2450/8801=0.278

c) option A is corect

male female total under 16 175 149 324 16-20 6351 2450 8801 21-34 11963 4916 16879 35-54 10517 4783 15300 55-69 5666 1869 7535 70 and over 3001 1649 4650 total 37673 15816 53489
