Work Step by Step

The probability of history books is: $\dfrac{85}{1000}$ The probability of fiction books is: $\dfrac{240}{1000}$ The probability of historical fiction books is: $\dfrac{25}{1000}$ Thus, the probability of history or fiction books but not the historical fiction books will be: $\dfrac{85}{1000}+\dfrac{240}{1000}-\dfrac{25}{1000}$ or, $=\dfrac{3}{10}$ Therefore, the correct option is $\bf{H}$.
