Question

I'm have a difficult time understanding how to solve (c). I keep getting the answer wrong.

If I unsterstand correctly the probabilty of not being femaleP(A) =1-total #of female/total # of male and female and the probability of not have a degree outside of fieldP(B) is 1-degrees outside of field/ total degrees

to solve I did P(A)+P(B)- probability of being female with degree in field.

then I tried to solve for probability of being male with a degree in the field and it was still incorrect.

The accompanying table shows the numbers of male and female students in a certain region who received bachelor's degrees in a certain field in a recent year. A student is
selected at random. Find the probability of each event listed in parts (a) through (c) below.
