Need help in preparing for Gmat

Then you've come to the right place :-)

I find the wording in part 1.a) confusing.
I took it to mean that we had to take 8/20 (since it is a randomly chosen student from the entire pool that must be a female freshman or female science major or both).


Could you please tell me the phrasing that would apply when the probability is 8/20?

The wording for that would be:

"If a student is randomly selected, what is the probability that the selected student is a female freshman, a female science major or both?

Cheers,
Brent

Thank you so much Brent!
