31/147
Explanation: To find the probability of choosing a student who is not taking math or science, we need to find the number of students who are not taking either subject.
Total students = 147
Students taking math only = 95 - 52 = 43
Students taking science only = 73 - 52 = 21
Students not taking math or science = Total students - (Students taking math only + Students taking science only + Students taking both)
= 147 - (43 + 21 + 52)
= 147 - 116
= 31
Therefore, the probability of choosing a student who is not taking math or science is 31/147.

Therefore, the probability of choosing a student who is not taking math or science is 31/147.
