Explanation / Answer

What is the probability that a call to the technical support center involved an issue with Internet service?

Probability = Total number of calls involved an issue with internet service/ total number of calls

= (350 + 122) / (123 + 350 + 77 + 115 + 122 + 63) = 472/ 850 = 0.56
