In a group of 36 students, 6 study both Art and Biology.

13 study Biology but not Art.
2 study neither subject.
Given that a randomly selected student studies Art, what is the probability the student studies Art and Biology?

Answer:

SINCE STUDENTS THAT STUDY BOTH ARE 6

AND TOTAL NO. OF STUDENTS IS 36 THEREFORE,PROBABILITY =6/36=1/6

Greetings!

Answer:


(1)/(6)

Explanation:

If the total data set is 36 students, and you need to find out the probability that the randomly selected student studies both art and biology, you need to find the ratio:

Every 36 students there is 6

36 : 6

Divide both sides by 6:

6 : 1

So that means the probability is:


(1)/(6) or 1.16 recurring


Hope this helps!
