Answer 1

In a group of 20 adults, 4 out of 7 women and 2 out of 13 men wear glasses. What is the probability that a person chosen at random from the group is a women or someone who wear glasses.

---

P(w or g) = P(w) + P(g) - P(w and g)

= 7/20 + 6/20 - 4/20

= 9/20

Answer 2

Well, honey, let's break it down for you. There are 7 women and 13 men, so that's a total of 20 adults. 4 out of the 7 women wear glasses, and 2 out of the 13 men wear glasses. So, the probability of picking a woman or someone who wears glasses is (4/20) + (2/20) = 6/20 = 0.3, which is 30%. Hope that satisfies your curiosity, darling.
