36% of all newly released films in theaters are animated movies. But just because a film is animated doesn’t mean it’s necessarily suitable for children. Of these animated movies, 14% of them are rated R. For all non-animated movies, 30% are rated R. (It may be helpful to use a probability tree to answer the questions below.)
