A survey is taken in Ms. Smith's math class of the students' favorite foods. Out of the male students, 2 prefer pizza, 5 prefer steak, and 7 prefer chicken. Out of the female students, 10 prefer pizza, 1 prefers steak, and 5 prefer chicken. Construct a data table for this data. If you randomly select a student whose favorite food is steak, what is the probability that the student yo select is male?
