In a class 26 of students, 12 play an instrument and 19 play a sport. There are 2 students who do not play an instrument or a sport. What is the probability that a student plays an instrument given that they play a sport?

Ok so 26 is you total right so
19 of those 26 play sports
But only 12 in a class play a instrument
And you wanna figure out how many do both

Since I don’t see a way of doing that my answer would be 12

Or
It could be
19 plus 2 is 21 plus 12 is is 33 minus 26 which is 7
So 7????
I would go with seven

This is a hard problem I hope this helps you in some way.
Thank you
