Answer:
The probability percentage that both players will be seniors is 15.38%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a football team has 5 freshman, 8 sophomores, 11 juniors, and 16 seniors, if two are chosen at random to participate in the coin toss, to determine what is the probability that both players chosen will be seniors the following calculation must be done:
5 + 8 + 11 + 16 = 40
16/40 = X
4/10 = X
0.4 = X
15/39 = X
5/13 = X
0.38 = X
0.4 x 0.38 = X
0.1538 = X
Thus, the probability percentage that both players will be seniors is 15.38%.
