The probability of drawing a boy's name at random is the number of boys divided by the total number of students in the class.
Number of boys = 15
Number of girls = 16
Total number of students = 15 (boys) + 16 (girls) = 31
Probability of drawing a boy's name = Number of boys / Total number of students = 15 / 31 ≈ 0.4839
Therefore, the probability that a boy's name is drawn at random is approximately 0.4839 or 48.39%.
