The probability of finding a person enrolled in psychology that takes all three subjects is 10%, and the probability of finding a person not taking psychology that is taking both history and mathematics is 22%.

Probabilities

To find the probability of A) a person enrolled in psychology that takes all three subjects, and B) a person not taking psychology that is taking both history and mathematics; the following calculations must be made:

  • A) 10/100 x 100 = X
  • 0.1 x 100 = x
  • 10 = X

  • B) 22/100 x 100 = X
  • 0.22 x 100 = X
  • 22 = X

Therefore, the probability of finding a person enrolled in psychology that takes all three subjects is 10%, and the probability of finding a person not taking psychology that is taking both history and mathematics is 22%.
