The same 20 contestants, on each of 3 days, answered 5 questions in order to win a prize. Each contestant received 1 point for each correct answer. The number of contestants receiving a given score on each day is shown in the table above.
No contestant received the same score on two different days. If a contestant is selected at random, what is the probability that the selected contestant received a score of 5 on Day 2 or Day 3, given that the contestant received a score of 5 on one of the three days?

Explanation

It is given that no contestant received the same score on two different days, so each of the contestants who received a score of 5 is represented in the “5 out of 5” column of the table exactly once. Therefore, the probability of selecting a contestant who received a score of 5 on Day 2 or Day 3, given that the contestant received a score of 5 on one of the three days, is found by dividing the total number of contestants who received a score of 5 on Day 2 or Day 3 (2 + 3 = 5) by the total number of contestants who received a score of 5, which is given in the table as 7. So the probability is `5/7` . Either 5/7 or .714 can be gridded as the correct answer.
