Based on these results, express the probability that a seventh grader chosen at random will play an instrument other than drums as a fraction in simplest form.

Answer 1

There are 175 students in the seventh grade. Out of those students, 52 play an instrument other than drums.

So, the probability that a seventh grader chosen at random will play an instrument other than drums is 52/175, which simplifies to 4/13.

Therefore, the probability is 4/13.
