Probability = number of desired outcome / Total number of possible outcomes

According to the given data,
number of people work out at gym = 150
number of people play sports = 200
number of people who do both = 100

The total number of sudents = 150 + 200 + 100 = 450

Probability of a student who do both = 100 / 450 = 2 / 9
