Question 108

There are 200 students at a sports academy following a training program. Students can choose to participate in three specific workshops:

  • 115 participate in Nutrition (NNN),
  • 85 participate in Psychology (PPP),
  • 90 participate in Bio-mechanics (BBB),
  • 40 participate in Nutrition and Psychology,
  • 30 participate in Psychology and Bio-mechanics,
  • 45 participate in Nutrition and Bio-mechanics,
  • 10 participate in all three workshops.

c.

Bio-mechanics only.

[2]
d.

Students who want to specialize in high-performance coaching are exactly those who participate in both Psychology and Bio-mechanics. Given that a randomly chosen student wants to specialize in high-performance coaching,

find the probability that this student participates in all three workshops.
