Answer

Final Answer: The probability that a randomly selected student is not on academic probation is \(\boxed{0.74}\).

Steps

Step 1 :The total number of students is 200.

Step 2 :The number of students on academic probation is 52.

Step 3 :Therefore, the number of students not on academic probation is 200 - 52 = 148.

Step 4 :The probability that a randomly selected student is not on academic probation is the number of students not on academic probation divided by the total number of students, which is \(\frac{148}{200} = 0.74\).

Step 5 :Final Answer: The probability that a randomly selected student is not on academic probation is \(\boxed{0.74}\).
