会计考友

　AT least One 　　If probability of event A happening is p and event B happening is q, then the probability that at least one of them happens is (p+q).
* ~+ x- A/ C' Y5 N6 _5 I　　Example:
5 m$ H8 Z& e7 _4 p　　There are 20 quarters, 33 nickels, and 47 pennies in a jar. The probability that a randomly selected coin is a quarter= 20/(20+33+47)=20/100=0.2 and the coin is nickel = 33/100 =0.33.The probability it is either a quarter or a nickel = 0.2+0.33=0.53.
　　Remember:
　　The events needs to be mutually exclusive, that is if one happens the other cannot happen: a coin is either a quarter or nickel but not both.
