Answer:

0.36

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage of boys = 60%

Percentage of girls = 100 - 60 = 40%

Percentage of boys that arrive by car

= 20% of 60%

= 0.2 x 60 = 12%

Percentage of girls that arrive by car

= 60% of 40%

= 0.6 x 40

= 24%

Total Percentage of children arrive by car

= 12 + 24

= 36%

P(Arrive by car)

= 36%

= 0.36
