    Probability = 0.12676992

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The probability of selecting committee of seven composed of all Democrats.

    Total number = 45+55 = 100

    Number of Democrats = 55

    Number of committee = 7

    Probability = (55C7) / (100/7)

    Where C represent combination sign

    Probability = (202927725/1.60075608*10^10)

    Probability = 0.12676992
