Given: There are four men and six women on the city councils.
By using the formula,
P (E) =\( \dfrac{favourable\; outcomes }{total\; possible\; outcomes}\)
From the city council one person is selected as a council member so, we have to find the probability that it is a woman.
Total possible outcomes of selecting a person is 10C1
n (S)= 10C1 = 10
Let E be the event that it is a woman
n (E) = 6C1 = 6
P (E) =\( \dfrac{ n (E) }{ n (S)}\)
=\( \dfrac{6}{10}\)
= \( \dfrac{3}{5}\)
