Answer:

3/4 or 0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

You have four options available

Lets say P(A) is pick a rocket

P(A) = 2/4 because there are two rockets in the four choices

simplify it to 1/2

P(B) pick a big = 2/4 because there are two bigs and two smalls.

simplify it to 1/2

P(A ∩ B) = Pick a big rocket = 1/4

P(AUB) = P(A)+P(B)- P(A ∩ B)

P(AUB) = 1/2+1/2- 1/4 = 3/4 or 0.75
