Contingency Tables · Exercise 21

The table of data obtained from www.baseball-almanac.com shows hit information for four well known baseball players. Suppose that one hit from the table is randomly selected.
$$\begin{array}{cccccc}\text{NAME}& \text{Single}& \text{Double}& \text{Triple}& \text{Home Run}& \text{TOTAL HITS}\\ \text{Babe Ruth}& \text{1,517}& \text{506}& \text{136}& \text{714}& \text{2,873}\\ \text{Jackie Robinson}& \text{1,054}& \text{273}& \text{54}& \text{137}& \text{1,518}\\ \text{Ty Cobb}& \text{3,035}& \text{724}& \text{295}& \text{117}& \text{4,189}\\ \text{Hank Aaron}& \text{2,294}& \text{624}& \text{98}& \text{755}& \text{3,771}\\ \text{TOTAL}& \text{7,918}& \text{2,127}& \text{583}& \text{1,723}& \text{12,351}\end{array}$$

Find P(hit was made by Babe Ruth).

(a) $\frac{1518}{2873}$
(b) $\frac{2873}{12351}$
(c) $\frac{583}{12351}$
(d) $\frac{4189}{12351}$

Its source prints no answer for this problem, so there's nothing to check against.
