Question
### School Days

The following table presents the numbers of students enrolled in grades 1 through 8 in public schools in a certain country. The data is expressed in thousands.

| Grade | Frequency (in 1000s) |
|-------|----------------------|
| 1     | 3775                 |
| 2     | 3602                 |
| 3     | 3612                 |
| 4     | 3587                 |
| 5     | 3638                 |
| 6     | 3690                 |
| 7     | 3751                 |
| 8     | 3790                 |
| **Total** | **29,445**          |

**Source:** Statistical Abstract of the United States

Consider these students to be a population. Let \( X \) be the grade of a student randomly chosen from this population.

#### Task
Construct the probability distribution of \( X \). Round the answers to three decimal places.

**Probability Distribution Table**

| \( x \) | 1     | 2     | 3     | 4     | 5     | 6     | 7     | 8     |
|---------|-------|-------|-------|-------|-------|-------|-------|-------|
| \( P(x) \) | [  ]   | [  ]   | [  ]   | [  ]   | [  ]   | [  ]   | [  ]   | [  ]   |

*Note: Fill in the probabilities \( P(x) \) by dividing each grade's frequency by the total population.*
