Answer:

7/80

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that: P(B) = 7 / 20, P(A|B)= 1 / 4

Bayes theorem is used to mathematically represent the conditional probability of an event A given B. According to Bayes theorem:

P(A|B)=\frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)}

Where P(B) is the probability of event B occurring, P(A ∩ B) is the probability of event A and event B occurring and P(A|B) is the probability of event A occurring given event B.

P(A|B)=\frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)}\\\\P(A \cap B)=P(A|B)*P(B)\\\\Substituting:\\\\P(A \cap B)=1/4*7/20=7/80\\\\P(A \cap B)=7/80

Monica [59]
Now, if the customers left 8.23 extra, based on a percentage of the cost of the meal, namely, the 8.23 is a percent of 49.28, then

if we take 49.28 to be the 100%, how much of a percentage is 8.23?

\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
amount&\%\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
49.28&100\\
8.23&t
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{49.28}{8.23}=\cfrac{100}{t}\implies t=\cfrac{8.23\cdot 100}{49.28}
