Question 1169100: In one community, 300 people were surveyed to see if they would participate in a curbside recycling program. Of those surveyed, 134 said they would recycle aluminum cans and 108 said they would recycle glass. Of those, 62 said they would recycle both. What is the probability that a randomly selected member of the community would recycle aluminum or glass?
