In a certain Algebra 2 class of 23 students, 5 of them play basketball and 15 of them play baseball. There are 5 students who play neither sport. What is the probability that a student chosen randomly from the class plays both basketball and baseball?

Respuesta :

Answer:

2/23 or about 8.6%

Step-by-step explanation

Add the number of students

Basketball+baseball+neither

5+15+5=25

Subtract the number from the number of students in the class

25-23=2

This means that there are two students who play both.  

Then phrase the number as a probability fraction.  

2/23
