Historical records indicate that 8% have defects in shafts only, 6% have defects in bushings only, and 2% have defects in both shafts and bushings. One of the hydraulic assemblies is selected randomly. What is the probability that the assembly has a shaft or bushing defect (rounded off to two decimals)?
