In a class of 72 students, 40 are girls and, of these, 18 are going to college. Of the 32 boys in the class, 9 are going to college. A student is selected at random from the class. What is the probability that the person chosen is the following? (a) going to college P(college) = %3D (b) not going to college P(not college) = %3D (c) a girl who is not going to college P(girl, not college) = %3D
