Question

select the correct answer.
the venn diagram below shows the results of a survey of 200 readers on the type of magazine they read.
if a respondent is chosen at random, what is the probability that the respondent reads a technology or a business magazine?
a. \\(\frac{3}{5}\\)
b. \\(\frac{11}{20}\\)
c. \\(\frac{9}{20}\\)
d. \\(\frac{13}{20}\\)

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate readers in either category

$60 + 50 + 10 = 120$

Step2: Compute probability (favorable/total)

$\frac{120}{200} = \frac{3}{5}$

Answer:

A. $\frac{3}{5}$
