A class contains 125 students. Out of these, 70 cleared Mathematics, 55 cleared Statistics, and 30 cleared both subjects. If one student is chosen at random from the class, what is the probability that the student has cleared exactly one of the two subjects?

1. 13/25
2. 3/25
3. 17/25
4. 8/25

Correct answer: 13/25

Solution

Only Maths = 70-30 = 40; only Statistics = 55-30 = 25; exactly one = 65. Probability = 65/125 = 13/25.
