The correct formula to interpret the answer to an "or" probability scenario involving two events \(P(A)\) and \(P(B)\) is:

\[ P(A) + P(B) - P(A \text{ and } B) \]

This formula accounts for the overlap of events A and B, ensuring that the probability of both events occurring together is not counted twice.

So, the correct response is:

P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B)
