In a village of 2,600 people, 800 people are over 70 years old and 850 people are female. It is known that 40 percent of the females are younger than 70 years old. If no one in the village is 70 years old, what is the probability that a person chosen at random is either a male or younger than 70 years old?	Select:
A) 221 / 250  B) 199 / 250  C) 33 / 50  D) 8 / 25  E) 209 / 260

Rationale: the number of people younger than 70 years old is 2600 - 800 = 1800 the number of females older than 70 years old is 0.6 * 850 = 510 then the number of males older than 70 years old is 800 - 510 = 290 . the number of people who are either male or younger than 70 is 1800 + 290 = 2090 . p ( a person is younger than 70 or male ) = 2090 / 2600 = 209 / 260 the answer is e .
Answer: E
