An elementary school is offering 3 language classes one in spanish one in french, if 2 students are chosen randomly, what is the probability that at least 1 is taking a language class?

Sagot :

The probability that atleast one students is taking a language class is 0.7

What is the probability?

Probability refers to a possibility that deals with the occurrence of random events.

The probability of all the events occurring need to be 1.

Let :

Spanish = S ; French = F ; German = G

SnFnG = 3

(SnF) only = 9 - 3 = 6

(SnG) only = 5 - 3 = 2

(FnG) only = 5 - 3 = 2

S only = 28 - (6+3+2) = 17

F only = 21 - (2+3+2) = 14

G only = 12 - (6+3+2) = 1

Student not taking any of the classes are;

(100 - (17+14+1+2+2+6+3))

100 - 45 = 55

Atleast 1 is taking a language class out of 2 selected

The probability that atleast one students is taking a language class :

(45/100 * 55/99) + (55/100 * 45/99) + (45/100 * 44/99)

= 0.7
