Given the table below showing t<span>he probabilities of the orphaned pets in six cities' animal shelters being different types of animals.

   City          Cat          Dog        Dog        Dog       <span>Dog                                      
                         −Lhasa Apso −Mastiff −Chihuahua −Collie
Austin       24.5%      2.76%    2.86%     3.44%    2.65%
Baltimore 19.9%      3.37%    3.22%     3.31%    2.85%
Charlotte  33.7%     3.25%     3.17%     2.89%    3.33%
St. Louis  43.8%     2.65%     2.46%     3.67%    2.91%
Salt Lake
City          28.9%     2.85%     2.78%     2.96%    2.46%
Orlando   37.6%     3.33%     3.41%     3.45%    2.78%

Condtional probability </span><span>is a measure of the probability of an event given that another event has occurred. If the event of interest is A and the event B is known or assumed to have occurred, "the conditional probability of A given B", or "the probability of A under the condition B", is usually written as P(A|B).

The probability of A given B, is given by
P(A|B)= \frac{P(A\cap B)}{P(B)}

From the table, the probability that an </span>orphaned pet in a St. Louis animal shelter is a mastiff dog is 2.46% and the probability that <span>an <span>orphaned pet in a St. Louis animal shelter is a dog is 2.91% + 2.68% + 3.09% + 2.58% = 11.26%</span>

The probability that a randomly selected orphaned pet in a St. Louis animal shelter is a mastiff given that it is a dog, is given by
\frac{P(St. \, Louis\, and\, dog-mastiff)}{P(dog)} = \frac{2.46}{11.26} \times100\%=21.85\%</span>

Semmy [17]
$15 x .0725 = 1.0875 which we have to round to $1.09
Notice how I changed the  7.25% to a decimal .0725 by moving it back two places.
