Solution with som explanation

Respuesta :

Answer:

a) 30%

Step-by-step explanation:

50% of the students were taking statistics subject, 30% economics and 10% both the subjects.

The probability a student takes only statistics = 50% - 10% = 40%

The probability a student takes only economics = 30% - 10% = 20%

The probability a student was taking neither statistics nor  economics = 100% - (40% + 20% + 10%)

The probability a student was taking neither statistics nor  economics = 30%
