Step 1 - Question 10

Given that 

Total people selected (n) = 1114

Regular smokers = 162

Heavy smokers = 93

both heavy and regular smokers included = (162+93)=255

We know that 

Probability=Number of favorable eventsTotal number of events

one person is randomly selected the probability it is either regular or heavy smoker.

Favorable events = 255

Total events = 1114

Probability = =2551114=0.2289

If a person is drawn random the probability that regular or heavy smoker is 0.2289
