Answer 1

F is an event represent a person works in the finishing department.

And, there are 10% of employee works in the finishing department.

the probability that a random person selected is from finishing department is given below.

P(F) = 10 / 100.

P(F) = 0.10

So, the correct answer is an option (B)
