Formula used:
In a sample space, S, of equally likely, the probability of an event E is given by
P(E)=νmber of ements  the eventνmber of ements  the sa space=n(E)n(S)
Calculation:
Denote the sample space as
S=1940
Let R represent the event of selecting a student was in the 37-46 are group
R=370
Let B represent the event of selecting a student who received a "B" in the course. Some of these students are of 37-46 age group, so
B=420
P(RorB)=n(R)+n(B)n(S)=370+4201940=7901940=79194
Therefore, probability that the selected student was in the 37-46 are group or received a "B" in the course is 79194.
