Answer:

0.714

Step-by-step explanation:

P(A or B or C) = P(A) + P(B) + P(C)

=(5/35)+(10/35)+(15/35)

=25/35

=0.714

Probability that a student earns a grade of A, B, or C is equals to 0.86.

What is probability?

" Probability is defined as the ratio of number of favourable outcomes to the total number of outcomes."

Formula used

Probability = [tex]\frac{Number of favourable outcomes}{Total number of outcomes}[/tex]

According to the question,

Given,

Total number of students = 35

Number of students getting grade A = 5

Number of students getting grade B = 10

Number of students getting grade C = 15

Substitute the value in the formula of probability we get,

P(A or B or C) = P(A) + P(B) + P(C)

                      = [tex]\frac{5}{35} +\frac{10}{35} +\frac{15}{35}[/tex]

                      = [tex]\frac{30}{35}[/tex]

                      = 0.8571

                      = 0.86 (decimal rounded to the nearest hundredth)

Hence, probability that a student earns a grade of A, B, or C is equals to 0.86.
