Astudent is taking two courses, history and math. the probability the student will pass the history course is .58, and the probability of passing the math course is .60. the probability of passing both is .43. what is the probability of passing at least one?

There is a 75% chance of passing at least one class.

To solve this problem, you should set up a Venn diagram with 2 circles. The left will be history and the right will be math. In the intersection, you will have 43%. That leaves 15% for history only and 17% for math only.

Since we are looking for the probability of at least one class, we should add up all 3 individual sections of the diagrams.

15% + 43% + 17% = 75%
