I'm a bit confused about this one

Three people, Bob, Anne, and Liz have applied for the same job and one of them will get the job. Based on experience, Bob has a 30% chance of getting the job and Anne has a 38% chance of getting the job.

 

 Determine the odds in favor of Liz getting the job.

 

Thank you :)

Because Bob has a 30% chance and Anne has a 38% chance of getting the job, we can add these up and subtract them from the total 100% that a person could possibly have.

 

Therefore:

 

30 + 38 = 68

 

100 - 68 = 32

 

 

So, Liz has a 32% chance of getting the job.
