Question 1067058: Of 240 students,176 are on the honor roll,48 are members of the varsity team,and 36 are in the honor roll and are also members of the varsity team.What is the probability that a randomly selected student is on the honor roll or is a member of the varsity team?

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Since we don't care if the student is from the HR or V, we can add them up:
Honor roll.: 176
Varsity Team: 48
Total . .. : 226
<><><><><><><><><><>
Total students: 240
HR and V: 226
Out of 240, chances we pick one of those 226:
226/240 = 0.9416 or 94.16%
