The table summarizes the number of universities and colleges in the state of Iowa by type and enrollment. If a university or college with enrollment greater than 10,000 is selected at random, what is the probability it is a public university or college? (Express your answer as a decimal or fraction, not as a percent.)
The correct answer is: 4/5
Selected from enrolment of greater than 10000
Total = 5 Universities, 4 of which are from public universities, so, if a university is selected at random, there’s a 4/5 chance that it will be a public university or college.
