Solution Steps

Step 1: Determine Overlap

Given that Event A (black two) and Event B (red three) are non-overlapping, based on the overlap condition: False.

Step 2: Calculate Combined Probability

Since the events are non-overlapping, we use the formula $P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B)$ to calculate the combined probability. Substituting the given probabilities, $P(A \cup B) = 0.0385 + 0.0769 = 0.12$.

Final Answer:

The probability of either Event A (black two) or Event B (red three) occurring is 0.12.
