Obtain the probability of P(S and W)

 

The probability of P(S and W) is obtained below as follows:

 

From the information, given that

 

Let T denote the total outcomes. That is, N(T)=1000

Let S denotes the event that the male aged 18-24 is smoker. That is, N(S)=342.

Let W denotes the event that the Race of person is White. That is, N(W)=810.

Let (S and W) denote the event that the male aged 18-24 is smoker and is of Race White. That is, N(S and W)=292.

 

The required probability is,
