A random sample of eighty students were asked to name their favorite fruit. The table shows the results. Bananas= 13 Apples = 27 Pears = 14 Grapes = 26 From the data, construct a probability model for the fruit preferences of all students in the school.
+1036 Total the fruits . . .
13 + 27 + 14 + 26 = 80
Divide each by the total to obtain each fruits fractional portion and the probability of a random student selecting that fruit as a favorite.
Bananas= 13/80 = 16.25%
Apples = 27/80 = 33.75%
Pears = 14/80 = 17.50%
Grapes = 26/80 = 32.50
