Answer 1

12%

Explanation:

We have to find percentage of employee both manager and has MBA degree.

Percentage of employee both manager and has MBA degree=P(MBA and manager)*100

We are given that

P(MBA)=0.25

P(Manager)=0.20

P(MBA/ manager)=0.60

P(MBA and manager)=?

P(MBA/ manager)=P(MBA and manager)/P(Manager)

P(MBA/ manager)*P(Manager)=P(MBA and manager)

P(MBA and manager)=0.6*0.2

P(MBA and manager)=0.12

Percentage of employee both manager and has MBA degree=0.12*100

Percentage of employee both manager and has MBA degree=12%.

Thus, the percentage of the employees is both manager and has MBA degree is 12%
