Given : in a survey of 70 businessmen,
20 of them own only scooters, 10 own only bikes and 15 own only cars, Five businessmen own all the 3 vehicles.
each businessman owns at least one of the three vehicles
To Find: the probability that a businessman selected at random possesses only 2 vehicles
a) 3/7
b) 2/7
c) 1/7
d) 4/7
Solution:
each businessman owns at least one of the three vehicles
Hence
70 = only scooter + only bikes + only cars + exactly 2 vehicles + 3 vehicles
=> 70 = 20 + 10 + 15 + exactly 2 vehicles + 5
=> 70 = 50 + exactly 2 vehicles
=> exactly 2 vehicles = 20
probability that a businessman selected at random possesses only 2 vehicles = 20/70
= 2/7
Hence 2/7 is the correct answer
option b is correct.
