A fitness center has 100 members. The length of time they have been members and their preferred exercise type are summarized in the table below.

Membership duration, xxx yearsYogaCardio
x<2x < 2x<2812
2≤x<52 \le x < 52≤x<51525
5≤x5 \le x5≤x1228

One of the 100 members is selected at random.

a.

Find the probability that the member prefers Yoga.

[1]
b.

Given that the member has been a member for less than 2 years, find the probability that this member prefers Cardio.

[2]
c.

Given that the member has been a member for less than 5 years, find the probability that this member prefers Cardio.

[2]
d.
