You can put this solution on YOUR website! A mathematics class is composed of 35 men and 45 women.

If a single student is chosen from the class, what is the probability that the student is a computer science or mathematics major?
--------------------
# of cs or math majors: 10+20 = 30
---
Total # in the math class: 35+45 = 80
---------------------
P(cs or math major) = 3/8
