Asurvey asked people of different ages whether they get their news by reading the paper. what is the probability that a person surveyed gets the news by reading the paper, given that he or she is under 40? if necessary, round your answer to the nearest percent. a.10% b.14% c.5% d.90%

 Option 'A' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of people who read paper and under 40  = 4

Number of people who are under 40 = 40

We need to find the probability that a person surveyed gets the news by reading the paper given that he or she is under 40.

We will use "Conditional probability":

P( person read the paper given that he or she is under 40 ) is given by

Hence, Option 'A' is correct.
