Answer:

67

The multiples of 2 between 1 and 15 are

2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14

The multiples of 5 are

5, 10, 15

So, there are seven multiples of 2 and three multiples of 5.

The probability of getting a multiple of 2 is

P=\frac{7}{15}= 0.47 (or \ 47\%)P=

15

7

=0.47(or 47%)

The probability of getting a multiple of 5 is

P=\frac{3}{15}=0.2 (or \ 20\%)P=

15

3

=0.2(or 20%)

Now, the probability of getting a multiple of 2 or 5 is

P=0.47+0.20=0.67 (or \ 67\%)P=0.47+0.20=0.67(or 67%)

Therefore, the answer is 67%.

Remember that the probability of one event happening OR another event happening is the sum of the probabilities of those events.
