Answer:

this probability is 0.68

Step-by-step explanation:

the probability she buys fruit but not a CD is

0.6 × (1 - 0.2) = 0.48

the probability she buys a CD by not fruit is

0.2 × (1 - 0.6) = 0.08

the probability that she buys both is

0.6 × 0.2 = 0.12

the probability that she buys fruit or a CD or both is adding all 3 probabilities :

0.48 + 0.08 + 0.12 = 0.68
