Product Rule
\(P(X ∩ Y)= P(X|Y)P(Y)\)
Given; \(P(X|Y) = 60\) Whereas, Y= inaccurate paper record and X= inaccurate electronic record
\(P(Y)=\frac{P(X ∩ Y)}{ P(X|Y)}=\frac{3}{60}=\frac{1}{20}\)
\(P(X)=\frac{P(X ∩ Y)}{ P(Y|X)}=\frac{3}{75}=\frac{1}{25}\)
\(P(X ∪ Y)= P(X) + P(Y)-P(X ∩ Y) = \frac{1}{25}+\frac{1}{20}-\frac{3}{100}=\frac{6}{100}\)
Therefore, Required Probability:
\(P`=1-P=1-\frac{6}{100}=\frac{94}{100}\)
Ans B

Seems like this is a dependent event. Is this a GMAT type question?
