A group of 11 people can speak either English or French or Both. Seven can speak English and six can speak French. What is the probability that a person chosen at random can speak both English and French?

A.

211

B.

411

C.

511

D.

1113

Correct answer is A

Let the number of people that speak both English and French = x

Then (7 - x) + x + (6 - x) = 11

13 - x = 11 x = 2.

P(picking a person that speaks both languages) = 2/11
