A community-based study of respiratory illness during the first year of life was conducted in North Carolina. As part of this study, a group of children were classified according to family socioeconomic status. The numbers of children in each group who experienced persistent respiratory symptoms are shown below.

Socioeconomic Status	Number of Children	Numbers with Symptoms
Low	79	31
Middle	122	29
High	192	27

(a) Use these data to compute the probability of suffering from persistent respiratory symptoms in each socioeconomic group. Assume that the numbers are large enough to satisfy the frequentist definition of probability.

(b) Calculate the odds of experiencing persistent respiratory symptoms for both the middle and low socioeconomic group relative to the high socioeconomic group.
