Answer:

  10/13 ≈ 76.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

P(A∪B) = P(A) +P(B) -P(A∩B)

P(plays basketball ∪ plays baseball)

   = P(plays basketball) +P(plays baseball) -P(plays both)

P(plays basketball ∪ plays baseball) = 16/26 +9/26 -5/26 = 20/26 = 10/13

P(plays basketball or baseball) = 10/13 ≈ 76.9%

Answer:

The answer is 11 percent.
