Question

Use the table to answer the question.

Walk to Library Ride to Library Total
Live Within 1 Mile of the Library 27 17 44
Live More than 1 Mile from the Library 6 50 56
Total 33 67 100
A group of people were asked how many miles they live from the public library and if they walk or ride (bus or car) to visit the library. The study included 100 participants, and its intent was to see if there is an association between the distance a person lives from the library and how they get to the library. The results are summarized in the table. Of the people who ride to the library, what fraction lives more than one mile from the library?

Answer 1

To find the fraction of people who ride to the library and live more than one mile from the library, we need to look at the relevant values from the table.

From the table, we have:
- Number of people who ride to the library and live more than 1 mile from the library: 50
- Total number of people who ride to the library: 67

Now we can set up the fraction:

\[
\text{Fraction} = \frac{\text{Number of people who ride and live more than 1 mile}}{\text{Total number of people who ride}} = \frac{50}{67}
\]

Thus, the fraction of people who ride to the library and live more than one mile from the library is:

\(\frac{50}{67}\)

So the correct response is:

**50/67**
