Solution

Primero, sumamos el total de niños en la clase:

12 (leyendo libros) + 9 (en computadoras) + 3 (mirando por la ventana) = 24 niños en total.

Luego, calculamos la probabilidad de que un niño elegido al azar esté mirando por la ventana. La probabilidad se calcula dividiendo el número de niños mirando por la ventana entre el total de niños:

Probabilidad = Número de niños mirando por la ventana / Total de niños Probabilidad = 3 / 24

Simplificamos la fracción:

Probabilidad = 1 / 8

Finalmente, convertimos la fracción a un número decimal y redondeamos a tres decimales:

Probabilidad = 0.125

Por lo tanto, la probabilidad de que un niño elegido al azar esté mirando por la ventana es 0.125.
