Question

In a math class of 35 students, 17 boys and 18 are girls. On a unit test, 8 boys and 12 girls made an A grade. A student is chosen at random from the class. What is the probability of choosing a boy or an A student?

Answer 1

Answer:

29/35

Step-by-step explanation:

probability of choosing a boy or an A student = (boys + a students - a boys)/total -->

probability of choosing a boy or an A student = (17 + 20 - 8)/35 -->

probability of choosing a boy or an A student = 29/35
