In a bag of 100 candies, 55 candies are circle-shaped and 45 are square-shaped. 35 candies have almond cores, and the remaining ones have pecan cores. there are 38 circle-shaped candies with pecan cores. what is the probability that a candy picked at random is circle-shaped or has a pecan core

Respuesta :

Out of the 100 candies, there are 55 circle-shaped candies. So, the probability for picking a circle-shaped candy is 55/100. Additionally, the probability of picking candies with pecan core is (100 - 35)/100 is 65/100. Adding up these probabilities we get an answer of 120/100, we subtract the number of candies with common characteristics, 38/100. Thus, the answer is 82/100 or 41/50.
