Hi,
first thing you must do with a probability problem is to count how many thing you have in your universe.
Here we are dealing with sweets. So let's count : 5 +4+8+4+3 = 24
and there is 5 yellow so probability to pick up a yellow is 5/24
and there is 4 orange so probabilitu to pick up a orange is 4/24
To say : Ola will pick orange or yellow mean if she pick either one of the two sort is good. So you add the proba of each : 5/24 +4/24 = 9/24
and then you must reduce if you can : 9/24 = 3*3 /8*3 = 3/8
So the probability that Ola pick a yellow or orange sweet is 3/8 = 0.375
