Probability that the student got a 'C' GIVEN they are female = number of females that got a C in the test/number of females

From the information given,

number of females that got a C in the test = 12

number of females = 30

Thus,

Probability that the student got a 'C' GIVEN they are female = 12/30

We would simplify the fraction by dividing the numerator and denominator by 6. Thus,

Probability that the student got a 'C' GIVEN they are female = 2/5
