Answer:

The number of individuals who are either pescatarians or vegetarians is 12 + 27 = 39.

The total number of individuals surveyed is 190.

Therefore, the probability of selecting a pescatarian or vegetarian at random from the survey is:

39/190 ≈ 0.21

Rounding to the hundredths place, the probability is approximately 0.21.
