What value must be in the denominator for the probability that someone is 6–15 years old and prefers basketball?

(1 point)

Answer 1

To find the denominator for the probability that someone is 6–15 years old and prefers basketball, you need the total number of people surveyed, which is the total in the last row of the table.

In this case, the total number of surveyed individuals is 150.

Therefore, the value that must be in the denominator for this probability is 150.
