Question 928475: one of three accountants, bill, jane and doris, will be promoted in a CPA firm. If the probability that bill will be promoted is .25 and the probability that Jane will be promoted is .34, then what is the probability that Doris will be promoted? Answer by 428225(90) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Bill's probability of being promoted=0.25
Jane's probability of being promoted=0.34
-----
You must subtract Bill and Jane's probability of promotion from 1 to get Doris' probability of being promoted
Doris' probability of being promoted
= 1-0.25-0.34
-----
Doris' probability of being promoted =0.41
