Find the probability of picking a lens that is not scratched. d.) Find the probability of picking a lens that is not the wrong shape. Solution: a) Find the probability of picking a lens that is scratched or flaked. The probability of picking a lens that is scratched or flaked is (5865/25891) + (1992/25891) - (5865/25891) * (1992/25891) = 0.321 b) Find the probability of picking a lens that is the wrong PD or was lost in lab. The probability of picking a lens that is wrong PD or was lost in lab is (1398/25891) + (976/25891)- (1398/25891) * (976/25891) = 0.094 c) Find the probability of picking a lens that is not scratched.
