<h3>
Answer: B) 47%</h3>
Work Shown:
A = event that the person has math degree
B = event that the person has a computer science degree
P(A) = 0.23, since 23% of the people have a math degree
P(B) = 0.31, similar reasoning as above, just different number
P(A and B) = 0.07
P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B)
P(A or B) = 0.23 + 0.31 - 0.07
P(A or B) = 0.47
The decimal value 0.47 then converts to 47% after moving the decimal 2 spots to the right.
There's a 47% chance that we pick someone who has a math degree or a computer science degree (or both).
It might help to set up a venn diagram to see why that formula above works.
