The image contains a question related to probability, involving students from Form 1 (Tingkatan 1) and Form 2 (Tingkatan 2), divided into boys and girls. Here's the breakdown of the table and questions:

### Table:
| **Gender**    | **Form 1** | **Form 2** |
|---------------|------------|------------|
| **Boys**      | 28         | 25         |
| **Girls**     | 12         | 15         |

### Questions:
1. **(a)** What is the probability that a randomly chosen student is from **Form 2**?
2. **(b)** What is the probability that a randomly chosen student is a **Form 1 boy**?

### Solutions:

#### (a) Probability of selecting a Form 2 student:
First, calculate the total number of students:
- Total boys in both forms = 28 (Form 1) + 25 (Form 2) = 53
- Total girls in both forms = 12 (Form 1) + 15 (Form 2) = 27
- **Total students** = 53 (boys) + 27 (girls) = **80**

Now, find the number of students in **Form 2**:
- Form 2 boys = 25
- Form 2 girls = 15
- **Total in Form 2** = 25 + 15 = **40**

The probability of selecting a **Form 2** student is:
\[
P(\text{Form 2}) = \frac{\text{Number of Form 2 students}}{\text{Total students}} = \frac{40}{80} = 0.5
\]

#### (b) Probability of selecting a **Form 1 boy**:
From the table, the number of **Form 1 boys** is 28.

The probability is:
\[
P(\text{Form 1 boy}) = \frac{\text{Number of Form 1 boys}}{\text{Total students}} = \frac{28}{80} = 0.35
\]

### Final Answer:
- (a) \( P(\text{Form 2}) = 0.5 \)
- (b) \( P(\text{Form 1 boy}) = 0.35 \)

Here are 5 related questions:
1. What is the probability of selecting a girl from Form 1?
2. What is the probability of selecting a boy from either form?
3. If two students are selected, what is the probability that both are from Form 1?
4. What is the probability of selecting a Form 2 girl?
5. How would the probability change if 5 more boys joined Form 1?

**Tip:** Always ensure that the total number of outcomes (students in this case) is considered when calculating probabilities.

A student is chosen at random from the group. Find the probability that the student is: (a) a Form 2 student, (b) a Form 1 boy.

This probability question asks for the chances of selecting a Form 2 student or a Form 1 boy. Using a basic probability formula and a table of student data, the solution provides clear steps. The problem is suitable for students in Grades 7-9.
