Answer

### A) ; B)

Explanation

## Step 1: Understanding the Probability Concept### To find the probability of an event, we use the formula: ## Step 2: Calculating Probability for Part A### For part A, we need to find the probability that a randomly selected female has blood group O. The number of females with blood group O is 20, and the total number of females is 50. Thus, the probability is: ## Step 3: Calculating Probability for Part B### For part B, we need to find the probability that a person is male given they have blood type A. The number of males with blood type A is 17, and the total number of people with blood type A is 35. Thus, the probability is:
