    P (student plays both soccer or basketball) = 40/300

    Simplify : 2/15

    In a group of 300 students, 18 students play basketball, 11 students play football. 10 students play both sports.

    Now, A student is chosen randomly from this group.

    What is the probability that the student plays both soccer or basketball?

    Probability of any event=no. of favorable outcomes/total no. of outcomes

    Here, no. of favorable outcomes

    =no. of students who plays both soccer or basketball

    = 32+18-10

    = 40

    and, total no. of outcomes = 300
