In a certain Algebra 2 class of 23 students, 11 of them play basketball and 13 of them play baseball. There are 6 students who play neither sport. What is the probability that a student chosen randomly from the class plays both basketball and baseball?

Answer:

9/23

 

Step-by-step explanation:

Students who play at least 1 sport = 23-8

= 15

Students playing both sports = (11+13)-15

= 24-15

= 9

 

Probability = 9/23
