The table gives the average number of voters in a certain city in each of three political parties during the last 12 years, along with the average number that voted in presidential elections during this period. Political Party Republican Democratic Independent Registered voters 4500 6100 2200 Voted 2925 2379 1100 (a) For each political party, use these data to find the probability that a person selected at random from the registered voters in the party will vote in the next election. (Enter your probabilities as fractions.) Pr(Republican will vote) Pr(Democrat will vote) Pr(Independent will vote) (b) For which party is the probability highest? Republican Independent Democrat
