To determine the probability of selecting a student with hazel eyes, we first need to find the total number of students surveyed and the number of students with hazel eyes.

The number of students with hazel eyes is 6.

Now, let's calculate the total number of students:

Total = blue + brown + green + amber + hazel + grey Total = 20 + 12 + 10 + 8 + 6 + 4 = 70

Now, we can calculate the probability of selecting a student with hazel eyes:

Probability (hazel eyes) = (Number of students with hazel eyes) / (Total number of students) Probability (hazel eyes) = 6 / 70

Now, we simplify this fraction:

6 / 70 = 3 / 35

So, the chance of selecting a student with hazel eyes is 3/35.

For question 2: In Dale's survey, the proportion of students with hazel eyes is relatively low compared to the total number of surveyed students (6 out of 70). Therefore, it would be most accurate to say that it is Unlikely that a student with hazel eyes will be chosen.
