    P (Anita not selected) = 2/7 and P (Amy not selected) = 3/5)

    P (neither selected) = 2/7 * 3/5 = 6/35

    P at least one is selected = (5/7 * 2/5) + (5/7 * 3/5) + 2/7*2/5)

    = 10/35 + 15/35 + 4/35 = 29/35

    Oh it would have been easier to use 1 - (neither selected) = 1 - 6/35

    = 29/35
