Answer:

0.554

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure attached, the table is shown

Total people: 1156

Nonsmoker men + occasional smoker men + regular smoker men + heavy smoker men + heavy smoker women = men + heavy smoker women = 601 + 39 = 640

Probability that the person is a  man or a heavy smoker = 640/1156 = 0.554

(Notice that if you directly add heavy smoker and total men you will count twice heavy smoker men)
