Answer:

60%

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that a grapefruit is pink OR seedless is given by the sum of the probabilities of the grapefruit being pink with seeds, pink and seedless or seedless and not pink:

[tex]P(P \cup S) = 10\% +30\%+20\%\\P(P \cup S) = 60\%[/tex]

The probability that a randomly selected grapefruit is pink or seedless is 60%.
