The question asks for the probability that a randomly selected adult from the 1000 adults is male, given a table of data divided by gender and political opinions.

### Table Breakdown:

|               | Republicans | Democrats | No Opinion | Total  |
|---------------|-------------|-----------|------------|--------|
| **Male**      | 220         | 340       | 40         | 600    |
| **Female**    | 170         | 200       | 30         | 400    |
| **Total**     | 390         | 540       | 70         | 1000   |

### Solution:
- Total number of males = 220 (Republicans) + 340 (Democrats) + 40 (No Opinion) = **600 males**.
- Total number of adults = **1000**.

The probability that a randomly selected adult is male is calculated by dividing the number of males by the total number of adults:

\[
P(\text{Male}) = \frac{600}{1000} = 0.6
\]

Thus, the probability that the adult selected is male is **0.6**.
