A ) 8 out of 43
B ) 25 out of 129
C ) 44 out of 129
D ) 12 out of 129

Steps to derive

1 Total number of books sold during the week = 44 + 36 + 24 + 25 = 129
 [Add the number of books in each subject.]

2 Number of math books sold = 44

3 P(math book) = Number of math books sold Total number of books sold = 44129
 [Substitute the values.]

4 The probability of selling a math book is 44 out of 129 .



Hence the right answer is Option C
