The table shows the distribution, by age and gender, of the 30.0 million people in a certain region who live alone. Use the data in the table to find the probability that a randomly selected person in the region is a woman in the 18−24 age range living alone.\begin{tabular}{|l|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|}\hline & \begin{tabular}{l} Ages \\18−24\end{tabular} & \begin{tabular}{l} Ages \\25−34\end{tabular} & \begin{tabular}{l} Ages \\35−44\end{tabular} & \begin{tabular}{l} Ages \\45−64\end{tabular} & \begin{tabular}{l} Ages \\65−74\end{tabular} & \begin{tabular}{l} Ages \\275\end{tabular} & \\\cline { 1 - 7 } Man & 0.6 & 2.4 & 2.3 & 4.3 & 1.5 & 1.2 & 12.3 \\\hline Woman & 0.7 & 1.3 & 1.8 & 6.0 & 2.8 & 5.1 & 17.7 \\\hline Total & 1.3 & 3.7 & 4.1 & 10.3 & 4.3 & 6.3 & 30.0 \\\hline\end{tabular}The probability is □.(Type an integer or decimal rounded to the nearest hundredth as needed.)
Q. The table shows the distribution, by age and gender, of the 30.0 million people in a certain region who live alone. Use the data in the table to find the probability that a randomly selected person in the region is a woman in the 18−24 age range living alone.\begin{tabular}{|l|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|}\hline & \begin{tabular}{l} Ages \\18−24\end{tabular} & \begin{tabular}{l} Ages \\25−34\end{tabular} & \begin{tabular}{l} Ages \\35−44\end{tabular} & \begin{tabular}{l} Ages \\45−64\end{tabular} & \begin{tabular}{l} Ages \\65−74\end{tabular} & \begin{tabular}{l} Ages \\275\end{tabular} & \\\cline { 1 - 7 } Man & 0.6 & 2.4 & 2.3 & 4.3 & 1.5 & 1.2 & 12.3 \\\hline Woman & 0.7 & 1.3 & 1.8 & 6.0 & 2.8 & 5.1 & 17.7 \\\hline Total & 1.3 & 3.7 & 4.1 & 10.3 & 4.3 & 6.3 & 30.0 \\\hline\end{tabular}The probability is □.(Type an integer or decimal rounded to the nearest hundredth as needed.)
Identify Data: Identify the total number of people living alone in the region and the number of women in the 18−24 age range living alone.The total number of people living alone in the region is given as 30.0 million.The number of women in the 18−24 age range living alone is given as 0.7 million.
Calculate Probability: Calculate the probability that a randomly selected person in the region is a woman in the 18−24 age range living alone.The probability is calculated by dividing the number of women in the 18−24 age range living alone by the total number of people living alone in the region.Probability = Total number of people living aloneNumber of women in the 18-24 age range living aloneProbability = 30.0 million0.7 million
Perform Division: Perform the division to find the probability.Probability = 0.7/30.0Probability = 0.023333…
Round Probability: Round the probability to the nearest hundredth as required.Rounded Probability = 0.02
