Hello candidate,
The other subset Q of A is randomly selected, then the probablity of combination is equal to 1 by 2.
a) P union Q contains exactly 8 elements out of a total of 32 elements which equals to 1/4.
b) P intersection Q contains exactly 4 elements, then the probability is equal to 1/8.
Hope it helps!!
