Given:

There are given that the total number of hats is 25.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find the number which is a multiple of 5 and 5:

So,

The number which is multiple of 5 is:


5,10,15,20,25

And,

The number which is multiple of 6 is:


6,12,18,24

Now,

We can see that the total number which is a multiple of 5 is 5.

So,

The probability is:


(5)/(25)=(1)/(5)

And,

We can also see that the total number which is a multiple of 6 is 4:

So,

The probability is:


(4)/(25)

Now,

The probability that the slip of paper show a number that is multiple of 5 or 6 is:


\begin{gathered} P=(1)/(5)*(4)/(25) \\ P=(4)/(125) \\ P=0.032 \end{gathered}

Final answer:

Hence, the probability is 0.032.
