Answer:

0.48

Explanation:

We were given the following details:

A= represents all brown shoes

B= represents all tennis shoes/sneakers

C= represents all shoes over three years old

Number of teachers wearing all brown shoes = 15 + (5 - 3) + (7 - 3) + 3 = 15 + 2 + 4 + 3 = 24

Number of teachers wearing shoes over 3 years old = 20 + (20 - 3) + (7 - 3) + 3 = 20 + 17 + 4 + 3 = 44

Total number of teachers = 15 + 30 + 20 + (5 - 3) + (20 - 3) + (7 - 3) + 3 = 65 + 2 + 17 + 4 + 3 = 91

The probability that a randomly selected teacher is wearing shoes over 3 years old is given by:

[tex]\begin{gathered} P=\frac{Number\text{ of teachers wearing shoes over 3 years old}}{Total\text{ Number of teachers}} \\ P=\frac{44}{91} \\ P=0.48 \\ \\ \therefore P=0.48 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, the probability that a randomly selected teacher is wearing shoes over 3 years old is 0.48
