Step 1
we have given that the following table of two-way classification of all basketball players at a state university who began their college careers between 2004 and 2008, based on gender and whether or not they graduated.
GraduatedDid not GraduateTotalMale12951180Female134367170Total26387350 We want to find the probability that randomly selected player is graduated or male P(graduated or male)=?
Step 2
P(graduated or male)=P(graduated)+P(Male)P(Graduated and Male)

=(263/350)+(180/350)(129/350)
=314350 = 0.897143
= 0.8971
The probability that randomly selected player is graduated or male = 0.8971
