Hello! I have homework due by midnight tonight, and I am having trouble with a word problem. This is the practice version.
Three hundred people apply for three jobs. 80 of the applicants are women.
If three persons are selected at random, what is the probability that one is a woman? (Round the answer to six decimal places.)
I was able to figure out the first part of the problem, which was figuring the probability of all the selected people being women. Please help! I am trying to figure this out from my textbook or searching but either my brain is stupid or I everything is really cryptic because I am stumped. Thanks!
