    The value of P (A or B or C) is 0.382.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given,

    P (A) = 0.169,

    P (B) = 0.041,

    P (C) = 0.172

    Since, if events A, B and C are mutually events (in which no element is common),

    Then, P (A∪B∪C) = P (A) + P (B) + P (C)

    Or P (A or B or C) = P (A) + P (B) + P (C),

    By substituting the values,

    P (A or B or C) = 0.169 + 0.041 + 0.172 = 0.382
