Answer:

D.)1/50

Step-by-step explanation:

Given number of spectator sport = 10

number of  participation sport = 5

Possible number of outcomes  = 1

[tex]P(hockey) =\frac{Possible\ number\ of\ outcomes}{Total\ number\ of\ outcomes}\ =\frac{1}{10}[/tex]

[tex]P(swim) =\frac{Possible\ number\ of\ outcomes}{Total\ number\ of\ outcomes}\ =\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

[tex]P(hockey \ and \ swim) = P(hockey) \times P(swim) =\frac{1}{10} \times \frac{1}{5} = \frac{1}{50}[/tex]
