Answer:
[tex]P(Canada\ or\ Mexico)= 23\%[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]P(Canada) = 18\%[/tex]
[tex]P(Mexico) = 9\%[/tex]
[tex]P(Both) = 4\%[/tex]
Required
Determine [tex]P(Canada\ or\ Mexico)[/tex]
In probability:
[tex]P(A\ or\ B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(Both)[/tex]
In this case:
[tex]P(Canada\ or\ Mexico)= P(Canada) + P(Mexico) - P(Both)[/tex]
Substitute values:
[tex]P(Canada\ or\ Mexico)= 18\% + 9\% - 4\%[/tex]
[tex]P(Canada\ or\ Mexico)= 23\%[/tex]
Hence, the required probability is 23%
