Sixty percent of a firm’s employees are men. Suppose four of the firm’s employees are randomly selected. a. What is more likely, finding three men and one woman or two men and two women? multiple choice 1 Finding three men and one woman is more likely. The probabilities of finding three men and one woman, and two men and two women are the same. Finding two men and two women is more likely. b. Do you obtain the same answer as in part a if 70% of the firm’s employees had been men? multiple choice 2 No, finding three men and one woman is more likely. Yes, the probabilities of finding three men and one woman, and two men and two women are the same. No, Finding two men and two women is more likely. Yes, finding three men and one woman is more likely.
