1. A realtor sells houses in three different neighborhoods in the city—A, B and C. He sells ranch style homes and two-story homes. Last year, 60% of his sales were in neighborhood A, while neighborhood B made up 25% and neighborhood C was 15% of the sales. Only 10% of the houses in neighborhood A were ranches, compared with 40% for neighborhood B and 50% for neighborhood C. Suppose we randomly select one of the homes he sold in one of these three neighborhoods.
