Answer

Probability that you randomly select a person who is either a female or blonde = 0.783

Step-by-step explanation

The probability of an event is calculated as the number of elements in the event divided by the total number of elements in the sample space.

For this question,

Number of persons who are either female or blonde = 612 + 716 + 66 + 876 = 2270

Total number of persons = 548 + 876 + 82 + 612 + 716 + 66 = 2900

Probability that you randomly select a person who is either a female or blonde = (2270/2900) = 0.783

Hope this Helps!!!
