Question:

At a large university, the Statistics Department has tried a different text during each of the last three quarters. During the fall quarter, 500 students used a book by Professor Mean; during the winter quarter, 300 students used a book by Professor Median; and during the spring quarter, 200 students used a book by Professor Mode. A survey at the end of each quarter showed that 200 students were satisfied with the text in the fall quarter, 150 in the winter quarter, and 160 in the spring quarter.

a. If a student who took statistics during one of these three quarters is selected at random, what is the probability that the student was satisfied with the textbook?

b. If a randomly selected student reports being satisfied with the book, is the student most likely to have used the book by Mean, Median, or Mode? Who is the least likely author?
