QuestionShow ExamplesIn a class of students, the following data table summarizes how many students play an instrument or a sport. What is the probability that a student chosen randomly from the class plays neither a sport nor an instrument?\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|}\hline & \begin{tabular}{c} Plays an \\instrument\end{tabular} & \begin{tabular}{c} Does not play \\an instrument\end{tabular} \\\hline \begin{tabular}{c} Plays a \\sport\end{tabular} & 2 & 4 \\\hline\end{tabular}

Identify Categories: Identify the total number of students in each category from the data table.- Students who play a sport and an instrument: 2- Students who play a sport but do not play an instrument: 4- Total students who play a sport (2+4): 6
Calculate Total Students: Calculate the total number of students in the class.Assuming the table includes all students, and there are no students outside these categories, the total is just those who play a sport, as no data is given for those who don't play a sport.- Total students in class: 6
