In a school, 80 students practice volleyball, 120 soccer, 20 both sports and 70 students, no sport. Choosing a student at random. What is the probability that he only practices volleyball?
Question
Answer:
Number of students who practice volleyball: 80
Number of students who practice soccer: 120
Number of students who practice both sports: 20
Number of students who do not practice any sport: 70
To find the number of students who only practice volleyball, we subtract the number of students who practice both sports from the total number of students who practice volleyball:
Number of students who only practice volleyball = Number of students who practice volleyball - Number of students who practice both sports
= 80 - 20
= 60
the total number is 80+120+70-20=250
P(Volleyball only) = V / Total =60/250
=0.24
