Question

A cooler has 12 apple juices and 15 grape juices. 9 of the apple juices are sugar free and 5 of the grape juices are sugar free. A juice is chosen at random. Given that the juice is NOT sugar free, find the probability that it is grape juice.

Answer 1

Answer:

The probability that it is grape juice, given that the juice is not sugar free is 0.769 or 76.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

$P(\text{Grape }|\text{ Not sugar free})=\dfrac{P(\text{Grape }\cap \text{ Not sugar free})}{P(\text{Not sugar free})}$

A cooler has 12 apple juices and 15 grape juices. So total 27 juices are there.

Out of 12 apple juices, 9 of the apple juices are sugar free, so 3 are not sugar free.

Out of 15 grape juices, 5 of the grape juices are sugar free, so 10 are not sugar free. So,

$P(\text{Grape }\cap \text{ Not sugar free})=\dfrac{10}{27}$

$P(\text{Not sugar free})=\dfrac{10+3}{27}=\dfrac{13}{27}$

Putting the values,

$P(\text{Grape }|\text{ Not sugar free})=\dfrac{P(\text{Grape }\cap \text{ Not sugar free})}{P(\text{Not sugar free})}=\dfrac{\frac{10}{27}}{\frac{13}{27}}=\dfrac{10}{13}=0.769$
