c c No. of pets 0 1 2 3 4 No. of students 8 4 5 10 3 The table shows the number of pets kept by 30 students in…

Analyze the question: We need the probability that a randomly chosen student kept more than one pet, meaning 2, 3, or 4 pets.

Concept: Probability = (number of favourable outcomes) / (total number of outcomes).

Solution:

Students with more than one pet:

• 2 pets: 5 students
• 3 pets: 10 students
• 4 pets: 3 students

Favourable = 5 + 10 + 3 = 18

Check the total: 8 + 4 + 5 + 10 + 3 = 30 ✓ (matches the 30 students stated)

P(more than one pet) = 18/30 = 3/5

Answer: C. 3/5

Tip: "More than one" does not include 1. Watch for wording such as "at least", "more than", and "at most", since they change which values you count. You can also use the complement as a check: students with 0 or 1 pet = 8 + 4 = 12, so 1 − 12/30 = 18/30 = 3/5 ✓.
