Question

At a certain high school, 35 students play only stringed instruments, 10 students play only brass instruments, and 5 students play both. There are also 5 students who play neither stringed nor brass instruments. what is the probability that a randomly selected student plays either a string or brass instrument?

Answer 1

Answer:

9/11

Step-by-step explanation:

Well we know there are 55 students in total and only 45 of them can either play a string or brass instrument.

So 45/55 is 9/11

Thus probably is 9/11 of a randomly selected student who plays either a string or brass.
