5/11 is the final answer.
- P(A) = 4/11
- P(B) = 3/11
When events are overlapping
formula: P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B)
=======
P(A or B) = 4/11 + 3/11 - 2/11
P(A or B) = 7/11 - 2/11
P(A or B) = 5/11
Answer:
5/11
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
- P(A) = 4/11
- P(B) = 3/11
- P(A ∩ B) = 2/11
We can construct a Venn diagram to help answer this question (see attached).
Place 2/11 in the overlapping part. Then calculate the remaining probabilities:
P(A) - P(A ∩ B) = 4/11 - 2/11 = 2/11
P(B) - P(A ∩ B) = 3/11 - 2/11 = 1/11
P(A' ∩ B') = 1 - 5/11 = 6/11
So P(A ∪ B) = 2/11 + 2/11 + 1/11 = 5/11
