Final answer:

The probability of randomly selecting a car from the given sample that has either 2 doors or 4 doors is 0.77.

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the likelihood or chance that an event will occur.

Probability = expected outcome of event/total outcome of event

According to the set diagram;

the total number of cars that has 2 doors = 14+18 = 32

the total number of cars that has 4 doors = 20+25 = 45

Probability of randomly selecting a car that has 2 doors = 32/100

Probability of randomly selecting a car that has 4 doors = 45/100

Probability that a randomly selected car from this sample had 2 doors or 4 doors = P(2 or 4) = 32/100+45/100 = 77/100

So, the probability is 0.77.
