A student taking Management Science 301 at East Haven University will receive one of the five possible grades for the course: A, B, C, D, or F. The distribution of grades over the past two years is as follows:
Grades Number of Students A B C D F
total

2. If this past distribution is a good indicator of future grades, what is the probability of a student receiving a C in the course?
Grades Number of Students Probability
A (80/300) = .266 or .27
B (75/300) = .25
C (90/300) = .30
D (30/300) = .10
F (25/300) = .08
total

3. The probability that a student will receive a C in the course is 30%.
