  • A \(\frac{3}{10}\)
  • B \(\frac{2}{9}\)
  • C \(\frac{5}{18}\)
  • D \(\frac{7}{10}\)
Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation:



\(\frac{\text{education}}{\text{graduates}} = \frac{108}{360} \times 4320\)
= 1296
Pr(Education) = \(\frac{1296}{4320} = \frac{1}{10}\)
pr(not education) = 1 - \(\frac{3}{10}\)
= \(\frac{10 - 3}{10}\)
= \(\frac{7}{10}\)
