Answer:

0.0816

Explanation:

Given:

  • Total number of students = 5000
  • Number of students taking an online class = 1200
  • Number of students prefer watching baseball to football = 1700

Let O = Students taking an online class

Let B = Students prefer watching baseball to football

Therefore,

P(O) = 1200/5000 = 0.24

P(B) = 1700/5000 = 0.34

If events O and B are independent,

⇒ P(O ∩ B) = P(O) · P(B)

= 0.24 × 0.34

= 0.0816
