$100,000 or more 32 4 4 40

$70,000 - $99,999 53 30 12 95

$40,000 - $69,999 84 80 26 190

Less than $40,000 25 37 43 105

Total 194 151 85 430

A) What proportion of the people survey are either 'very satisfied' or 'moderately satisfied'?

B) If one of the 430 people is selected at random, what is the probability that the person makes at least $70,000 annual income?
