    When calculating probability you need to remember that probability is:

    something that you are observing divided by total number of participants.

    The number you get is relative value (has value between 0 and 1) and if you want to get it in percentage (more clearly) just multiply it with 100.

    In this case we are observing blood type B persons. Number of them is 165.

    Total number of persons is 1500. Therefore our calculation looks like this:

    165/1500 = 0.11 or the probability is 0.11*100=11%
