Total number of engineers =`40`
(i) Number of engineers living less than `7` km from their place of work =`9P= 9/40`
(ii) Number of engineers living more than or equal to `7`km from their place of work =`40−9=31P= 31/40`
(iii)Number of engineers living within `1/2` km from her place of work =`0`,
`P= 0/40`
=`0`
