Detailed Solution

Given, the probability of Sangeeta winning the match is 0.62.
The P(A) of the random experiment as,

P (A) = \frac{Number of favorable outcomes}{Total number of outcomes}

The probability of Reshma winning the match is,
P(E) = 1 - P

\Rightarrow P (E) = 1 - 0.62

\Rightarrow P (E) = 0.38

The probability of winning the match by Reshma is 0.38.
Hence, option 3 is the correct answer.
