At a high school with 300 students, 32 play soccer, 18 play basketball, and 10 play both sports. If a student is selected at random, find the probability that a student plays soccer or basketball.

P (student plays both soccer or basketball) = 40/300

Simplify : 2/15

In a group of 300 students, 18 students play basketball, 11 students play football. 10 students play both sports.

Now, A student is chosen randomly from this group.

What is the probability that the student plays both soccer or basketball?

Probability of any event=no. of favorable outcomes/total no. of outcomes

Here, no. of favorable outcomes

=no. of students who plays both soccer or basketball

= 32+18-10

= 40

and, total no. of outcomes = 300
