Step 1
From the table, we see that there are total 83 men.
There are total 174 persons.
So the probability of getting a man P(men)=83174 From the table we see that total 56 people are skiing. So the probability of skiing is
P(Skiing)=56174
Step 2
Plugging the probabilities in the given expression we get:
P(men)P(skiing)
=83174×56174
=46481742
