Sarah- if she cut off 1/8 of a 48-inch piece of ribbon you would have to do 48/8=6 so then you do 48-6=42 so sarah has 42-inches of ribbon left.

jane- if she cut off 1/9 of a 36-inch piece of ribbon you would have to do 36/9=4 so then do 36-4=32

that means that sarah has more ribbon 

sarah has 10 more inches or ribbon thane jane

P(V|A) is not 0.95. It is opposite:

P(A|V)=0.95

From the text we can also conclude, that

P(A|∼V)=0.1

P(B|V)=0.9

P(B|∼V)=0.05

P(V)=0.01

P(∼V)=0.99

What you need to calculate and compare is P(V|A) and P(V|B)

P(V∩A)=P(A)⋅P(V|A)⇒P(V|A)=P(V∩A)P(A)

P(V∩A) means, that Joe has a virus and it is detected, so

P(V∩A)=P(V)⋅P(A|V)=0.01⋅0.95=0.0095

P(A) is sum of two options: "Joe has virus and it is detected" and "Joe has no virus, but it was mistakenly detected", therefore:

P(A)=P(V)⋅P(A|V)+P(∼V)⋅P(A|∼V)=0.01⋅0.95+0.99⋅0.1=0.1085
