Answer:

3/26 students or 11% Pls give brainly :)  

Step-by-step explanation:

probability dependant formula:P(A∪B)=P(A)+P(B)−P(A∩B)

P(a)= basketball

P(b)=baseball

so

P(AUB)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A∩B)= 18/26+5/26-20/26=3/26

3/26 or 11%  

OR you could solve this by adding all the sport/non sport #'s 18+5+6=29 and subtract 26 from 29

29-26=3

hence 3/26 students would randomly play basketball or baseball

Hope this Helps!
