{\text { Make }} & 0-2 & 3-5 & 6-10 & \text { over 10 } & \text { Total } \
\hline \text { Foreign } & 42 & 22 & 15 & 21 & 100 \
\text { Domestic } & 41 & 20 & 13 & 26 & 100 \
\hline \text { Total } & 83 & 42 & 28 & 47 & 200
\end{array}$
A) $\frac { 29 } { 50 }$
B) $\frac { 21 } { 50 }$

There are 100 foreign cars in total. The number of foreign cars older than 2 years is 22 (3-5 years) + 15 (6-10 years) + 21 (over 10 years) = 58. Thus, the probability is 58/100 = 29/50.
