In a group of 45 students, 5 study both Art and Biology. 8 study Biology but not Art. 9 study neither subject. Given that a randomly selected student studies Art, what is the probability the student studies Art and Biology?

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question

There is a total group of 45 students

Art + biology = 5

8 study biology but not Art

Neither subject studied = 9

Based on the above information, the probability of student that studies

art and biology is

Since there is a group of 45 students out of which 5 study both art and biology

So, the ratio is

4: 5

Now divide both sides by 5

So, now the ratio is

9:1

Therefore it means the probability is

- 1.613 = -1.6 or -1.61

-1.522 = -1.5 or -1.52

0.587 = 0.6 or 0.59

3.079 = 3.1 or 3.08
