In a college, \(40 \%\) students attend Mathematics class, \(30\% \)students attend physics class and \(20 \%\) students attend both the classes. If a student is chosen at random from the college, the probability that the student chosen attend only one class is

  1. A \(\frac{3}{10}\)
  2. B \(\frac{1}{3}\)
  3. C \(\frac{2}{3}\)
  4. D \(\frac{1}{4}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\frac{3}{10}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\because\) Students in a college \(=100 \%\) Let \(P(M)\) be the probability who attend Maths class and \(P(P)\) the probability who attend Physics classes. \( \therefore \quad P(M)=40 \%, \quad P(P)=30 \% \) \(\therefore\) Probability of students who attend only Maths…
