Sonali can solve 70% of the problems in a competitive exam and Nirali can solve only 60% in the same exam. What is the probability that at least one of them will solve a problem, provided selection of questions is done randomly from the same exam ?
P(atleast 1 solved) = 1 - P(no one solved)
= 1-(1-0.7)x(1-0.6)
= 1 - (0.3)x(0.4)
= 1 - 0.12
= 0.88
