1.86 : 2 = 186 hundredths : 2
1.86 : 2 = 93 hundredths
1.86 : 2 = 0.93
Multiplying both sides of an equation by the same number keeps the equation true. In this example, both sides are multiplied by 3, so the equation isn't changed.
<u>Answer:</u>
The correct answer option is P (S∩LC) = 0.16.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
It is known that the probability if someone is a smoker is P(S)=0.29 and the probability that someone has lung cancer, given that they are also smoker is P(LC|S)=0.552.
So using the above information, we are to find the probability hat a random person is a smoker and has lung cancer P(S∩LC).
P (LC|S) = P (S∩LC) / P (S)
Substituting the given values to get:
0.552 = P(S∩LC) / 0.29
P (S∩LC) = 0.552 × 0.29 = 0.16
