The probability of P or F occurring is .468

The formula is:

#P(AuuB)=P(A)+P(B)-P(AnnB)#

Basically you take the probability of #E +F# minus the probability of both events happening.

In terms of #(EuuF)#:

#P(EuuF)=P(E)+P(F)-P(EnnF)#

Plug in the values:

#P(EuuF)=P(.24)+P(.3)-P(.24xx.3)#

#P(EuuF)=.24+.3-(.072)#

#P(EuuF)=.54-.072#

#P(EuuF)=.468#
