83/117

Answer 1

To find the probability of randomly choosing a student who rides the bus, we first need to determine the total number of students.

The total number of students can be calculated by adding the number of students from each transportation method:
- Students who walk: 23
- Students who ride in a car: 94
- Students who ride the bus: 83

Total number of students = 23 + 94 + 83 = 200

Now, the probability of randomly selecting a student who rides the bus is the number of students who ride the bus divided by the total number of students:

Probability (bus) = Number of students who ride the bus / Total number of students
Probability (bus) = 83 / 200

So the answer is **83/200**.
