Answer

$\frac{39}{58}$

Work Step by Step

We know that $probability=\frac{\text{number of favourable outcomes}}{\text{number of all outcomes}}$ The total population (the number of all outcomes) is $174$ By using the table, the total number of people who took 4 years of high school only, here is $92+25=117$ Hence the probability here is: $\frac{117}{174}=\frac{39}{58}$
