Answer 1

a) .287

b) .293

Explanation:

The answers are boxed in red in the picture.

First I found how many people only golfed. Then I did the same for the people that only bowled. Next I found how many members didn't golf or bowl.

From there I found the probabilities by dividing

a.) # of members that only golf / total # of members

b.) # of members that don't bowl or golf / total # of members
