Answer:

0.2

Explanation:

The total number of points in PS is a sum of the number of points in :

PQ + QR + RS ;

PQ = 7 ; QR = 13 ; RS = 5

PS = (7 + 13 + 5) = 25

Probability that point selected at random is in RS ;

Required outcome = point in RS

Total possible outcomes = points in PS

Probability = RS / PS = 5 / 25 = 0.2
