Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of students is


n(S)=35

Concept:

To figure out the probability that a student earns grade A,B or C

Will be calculated below as


P(A,BorC)=P(A)+P(B)+P(C)

The Probability of A is


P(A)=(n(A))/(n(S))=(5)/(35)

The probabaility of B is


P(B)=(n(B))/(n(S))=(10)/(35)

The probabaility of C is


P(B)=(n(B))/(n(S))=(15)/(35)

Hence,

By substituting the values in the concept, we will have


\begin{gathered} P(A,BorC)=P(A)+P(B)+P(C) \\ P(A,BorC)=(5)/(35)+(10)/(35)+(15)/(35)=(30)/(35) \\ P(A,BorC)=0.857 \\ P(A,BorC)\approx0.86(nearest\text{ }hundredth) \end{gathered}

Hence,

The final answer is


0.86
