Concept:Probability $= \dfrac{\text{number of learners who scored 2}}{\text{total number of learners}}$. The frequency row tells how many learners got each mark.Solution:Total number of learners = sum of the frequencies:$1 + 2 + 7 + 5 + 4 + 3 = 22$Learners who scored 2: the frequency under mark 2 is $7$.$P(\text{scored } 2) = \dfrac{7}{22}$Key point: Divide by the total frequency (22), not by the number of different marks (6).Answer:Option C ($\frac{7}{22}$)
