1. **State the problem:** We have a group of people categorized by their mode of transportation: car only, bicycle only, both car and bicycle, and neither.
2. **Given data:**
- People who go by car only: 280
- People who go by both car and bicycle: 140
- People who go by bicycle only: 220
- People who go by neither: 160
3. **Find:** The probability that a randomly selected person uses only car or only bicycle.
4. **Total number of people:**
$$\text{Total} = 280 + 140 + 220 + 160 = 800$$
5. **Number of people who use only car or only bicycle:**
$$280 + 220 = 500$$
6. **Probability formula:**
$$P(\text{only car or only bicycle}) = \frac{\text{Number of people who use only car or only bicycle}}{\text{Total number of people}}$$
7. **Calculate the probability:**
$$P = \frac{500}{800}$$
8. **Simplify the fraction:**
$$P = \frac{\cancel{500}^{\times 100}}{\cancel{800}^{\times 160}} = \frac{5}{8}$$
9. **Final answer:**
The probability that a randomly selected person uses only car or only bicycle is **$\frac{5}{8}$** or 0.625.
