p(Blue or B) = p(Blue) + p(B) – p(Blue and B).
= 9/(20)+ 9/20 - 4/20=14/20=.7
= 9/(20)+ 9/20 - 4/20=14/20=.7

Probability of blue tile= 9/20
probability of letter b tile= 10/20= 1/2
Probability of blue or letter b= Probability of blue + probability of letter b
= 9/20 + 1/2
= 19/20
probability of letter b tile= 10/20= 1/2
Probability of blue or letter b= Probability of blue + probability of letter b
= 9/20 + 1/2
= 19/20
