Question

a shirt is randomly drawn from a bag with 14 small shirts, 19 medium shirts, and 7 large shirts. event a: small event b: medium p(a or b) = ? hint: p(a or b) = p(a) + p(b) round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate total shirts

Total = 14 + 19 + 7 = 40

Step2: Find P(A)

P(A) = $\frac{14}{40}$ = 0.35

Step3: Find P(B)

P(B) = $\frac{19}{40}$ = 0.475

Step4: Compute P(A or B)

P(A or B) = 0.35 + 0.475 = 0.825 ≈ 0.83

Answer:

0.83
