To calculate this probability is often easier to calculate the complement
the prob that we are looking for is 1-P(No salt packed in dinner)
Note: No salt packed with dinner is the complement event of having salt packed within
so let's find this probability
He is what we know
if John packs 4/45 chance no salt included
if Sue packs 3/70 chance no salt
if Marry packs 2/25 No salt
We are looking into probability is the sum (note these events are disjoint)
final result should be 1- that sum

The probability of that you will have salt packed with your dinner is [tex]\boxed{0.968}.[/tex]
Further explanation:
The probability can be obtained as the ratio of favorable number of outcomes to the total number of outcomes.
[tex]\boxed{{\text{Probability}} = \frac{{{\text{Favorable number of outcome}}}}{{{\text{Total number of outcomes}}}}}[/tex]
Given:
John packs [tex]45\%[/tex] of the dinners, Mary packs [tex]25\%[/tex] of the dinners and Sue packs the remaining dinners. Of the dinners John packs [tex]4\%[/tex] do not include a salt packet. If Mary packs the dinner [tex]2\%[/tex] of the time the salt is omitted. Lastly, [tex]3\%[/tex] of the dinners do not include salt if Sue does the packing.
Explanation:
The probability of John packs the dinner can be expressed as follows,
[tex]\begin{aligned}{\text{Probability}}\left( {{\text{John}}} \right) &= 45\%\\&= 0.45\\\end{gathered}[/tex]
The probability of Mary packs the dinner can be expressed as follows,
[tex]\begin{aligned}{\text{Probability}}\left( {{\text{Mary}}} \right) &= 25\%\\&= 0.25\\\end{aligned}[/tex]
The probability of Sue packs the dinner can be expressed as follows,
[tex]\begin{aligned}{\text{Probability}}\left( {{\text{Sue}}} \right) &= 1 - 0.45 - 25\\&= 1 - 0.70\\&= 0.30\\\end{aligned}[/tex]
The probability of no salt packet is packed given that the John packs for dinner can be expressed as follows,
[tex]P\left( {\dfrac{{{\text{No salt}}}}{{{\text{John packs}}}}} \right) = 0.04[/tex]
The probability of no salt packet is packed given that the Mary packs for dinner can be expressed as follows,
[tex]P\left( {\dfrac{{{\text{No salt}}}}{{{\text{Mary packs}}}}} \right) = 0.02[/tex]
The probability of no salt packet is packed given that the Sue packs for dinner can be expressed as follows,
[tex]P\left( {\dfrac{{{\text{No salt}}}}{{{\text{Sue packs}}}}} \right) = 0.03[/tex]
The probability of that you will have salt packed with your dinner can be expressed as follows,
[tex]\begin{aligned}{\text{Probability}}\left( {{\text{salt}}} \right) &= 1 - {\text{Probability}}\left( {{\text{No salt}}} \right)\\&= 1 - \left( {0.45 \times 0.04 + 0.25 \times 0.02 + 0.30 \times 0.03} \right)\\&= 1 - 0.032\\&= 0.968\\\end{aligned}[/tex]
The probability of that you will have salt packed with your dinner is [tex]\boxed{0.968}.[/tex]
