The correct answer is - South.

The longest river in the world is the Nile River in Africa. The Nile has a roughly south-north direction, beginning from the Lake Victoria and ending up in the Mediterranean Sea. If someone is following the Nile River and it is by hiking upstream, that means that the person will be moving in southern direction. At first the hiker will face relatively flat terrain, but as it moves more and more upstream it will encounter a more rugged terrain, until it finally reaches the Lake Victoria.

Given:

62% of the residents visit Comet Mall.

73% of the residents visit Star Mall.

48% of the residents visit both malls.

To find:

The probability that a resident chosen at random shops at either Comet Mall or at Star Mall.

Solution:

Let A be the event that the residents visit Comet Mall and B be the event that residents visit Star Mall. Then, we have

$P(A)=62\%$

$P(B)=73\%$

$P(A\cap B)=48\%$

We need to find the probability that a resident chosen at random shops at either Comet Mall or at Star Mall. It means, we have to find the value of $P(A\cup B)$ .

We know that,

$P(A\cup B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cap B)$

On substituting the given values, we get

$P(A\cup B)=62\%+73\%-48\%$

$P(A\cup B)=87\%$

Therefore, the probability that a resident chosen at random shops at either Comet Mall or at Star Mall is 87%.
