Carcass , what is the difference between my approach and approach taken by eskay1981 ?
P(Prime or Even)=P(Prime)+P(Even)−P(Prime and Even)
P(Prime or Even)=2/5 + 2/5 - (2/5 *2/5)
P(Prime or Even)= 16/25
P(Prime or Even)=P(Prime)+P(Even)−P(Prime and Even)
P(Prime or Even)=2/5 + 2/5 - (2/5 *2/5)
P(Prime or Even)= 16/25
