B. Probability of Peter = 5/74 or 6.8% (Rounding to the next tenth)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

              Guard Forward Center Totals

Over 6 feet 25     30        30        85

Under 6 feet 130 120      35        285

Totals           155 150      65        370

2. Russell is 5'9". What is the probability he is a forward?

Probability = Number of forwards under 6 feet/Total number of players

Probability = 120/370

Probability = 12/37 or 32.4% (Rounding to the next tenth)

3. Peter is 6'2". What is the probability he is a guard?

Probability = Number of guards over 6 feet/Total number of players

Probability = 25/370

Probability = 5/74 or 6.8% (Rounding to the next tenth)
