If A and B are mutually independent, then \mathbb P(A\cup B)=\mathbb P(A)+\mathbb P(B) and \mathbb P(A\cap B)=0.

If A and C are independent, then \mathbb P(A\cap C)=\mathbb P(A)\cdot\mathbb P(C). Ditto for B and C.

The inclusion/exclusion principle says that

\mathbb P(A\cup B\cup C)=\mathbb P(A)+\mathbb P(B)+\mathbb P(C)-\mathbb P(A\cap B)-\mathbb P(A\cap C)-\mathbb P(B\cap C)+\mathbb P(A\cap B\cap C)

Since A and B are mutually exclusive, their intersection is the empty set. It then follows that A\cap B\cap C also is the empty set, so the last probability is also 0.

Plug in what we know:

\mathbb P(A\cup B\cup C)=0.2+0.4+0.1-0-0.2\cdot0.1-0.4\cdot0.1+0

\implies\mathbb P(A\cup B\cup C)=0.64

Harman [31]

Answer:

6.24

Step-by-step explanation:

A= 18.42g, B = 5.8g,C = 0.75g

Total = 18.42 + 5.8 + 0.75

= 24.97g

Then divided into four equal parts

= 24.97g/4

= 6.2425g

= 6.24g
