Probability either variable is less than or equal to 4

Suppose X is a random Binom(10, .6) variable (10 flips of a coin with 60% chance of heads) and Y is a random Binom(10, .7) variable (10 flips of a coin with a 70% chance of heads), and they are independent.

What is the probability that either of the variables is less than or equal to 4?

Simulate 100,000 draws from each of X (10 coins, 60% chance of heads) and Y (10 coins, 70% chance of heads) binomial variables, saving them as X and Y respectively.
Use these simulations to estimate the probability that either X or Y is less than or equal to 4.
Use the pbinom() function to calculate the exact probability that X is less than or equal to 4, then the probability that Y is less than or equal to 4.
Combine these two exact probabilities to calculate the exact probability that either variable is less than or equal to 4.
