Answer:

0.38 = 38% probability that it is neither red nor blue​.

Explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this question:

100 cars.

Of those, 28 + 34 = 62 are either blue or red.

100 - 62 = 38 are neither blue of red.

What is the probability that it is neither red nor blue​?

38 out of 100, so:


p = (38)/(100) = 0.38

0.38 = 38% probability that it is neither red nor blue​.
