Question 420723: Susan has allergic reactions when she eats blueberries or cranberries. In a box of 30 assorted bagels, 8 contain cranberries, 4 have both, and 10 have neither. What is the probability that a bagel chosen at random would not contain blueberries or cranberries and be safe for Susan to eat?
