To find the probability that the winner is a 7th grader in Homeroom C, we need to calculate the total number of students who actively participated in the engagement activities in Homeroom C in the 7th grade, and then divide that by the total number of students who participated in the activities.

From the table provided:
Total number of students who participated from 7th grade in Homeroom C = 7
Total number of students who participated in the activities = 53

Therefore, the probability that the winner is a 7th grader in Homeroom C is:
7/53
