    37.67% probability that the pedestrian was intoxicated or the driver was intoxicated.

    A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

    In this question:

    945 accidents.

    In 64 of them, the pedestian was intoxicated.

    In 292 of them, the driver was intoxicated.

    Probability that the pedestrian was intoxicated or the driver was intoxicated.

    (64+292) / 945 = 0.3767

    37.67% probability that the pedestrian was intoxicated or the driver was intoxicated.
