Answer / yamini

100%. Probability. of a randomly chosen employee being
either male or female.

But let's see....
overall figures, percentage of total persons who are
male supervisors...18% (60% of 30%)
female supervisors...12% (40% of 30%)
male employees...28% (40% of 70%)
female employees...42% (60% of 70%)

total female...54%
total male...46%

The probability for each is the percentage of total
employees who are each gender, and is given above.

That is to say, choose a random employee (meaning a
supervisor or an employee...and if you do indeed mean that,
you should really use a different term in one case), and
there is a 54% chance that they are female, and a 46%
chance that they are male.
