Open the Tornado data and focus only on the number of tornadoes data (Not the tornado deaths data). By "Summer Months" we mean June, July, and August. Construct the correlation table including all 12 months and answer the questions:

I) If a person randomly picks a month, what is the probability that it will be one of the Summer Months? (10 points)

a. 1/3

b. 1/4

c. 1/5

d. 1/6

e. None of these

II) If a person randomly picks a month, what is the probability that this pick will be a month that comes chronologically AFTER May but BEFORE November ? (10 points)

a. 1/12

b. 2/12

c. 5/66

d. 5/12

e. None of these

III) If a person picks randomly two DIFFERENT months, what is the probability that the correlation between them is higher than 0.5? Hint: Use the Correlation Table as a guide. (10 points)

a. 1/12

b. 1/22

c. 2/33

d. 2/66

e. None of these
