photographers. What is the probability that the artist chosen will be a sculptor or a photographer?

Respuesta :

8/18 HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer:

4/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is defined as the possibility that an event will occur or not occur.

Probability = Possible outcome of event/Total outcome

Total outcome = total number of local artist = 10+3+5 = 18

Probability that the artist chosen will be a sculptor = 3/18 (since there are 3 sculptors).

Probability that the artist chosen will be a photographer = 5/18 (since there are 5photogragher)

Probability that the artist chosen will be a sculptor or a photographer will give;

3/18+5/18 = 8/18

= 4/9
