An engineering company has four openings and the applicant pools consists of 6 database administrators and eight network engineers. All are equally qualified so the hiring will be done randomly. The hiring committee consists of 4 women and 4 men. If one person on the hiring committee is chosed at random to draw the names out of a hat, what is the probability that the person drawing the names is a woman
