We need to figure out how much string would be left, after taking away the first two pieces.
We know that the first piece is 20 inches long, so we can say that there is 52-20 inches left, or 32 inches.

The second piece is between 12 and 18 inches, meaning that there would be between 32-12 and 32-18 inches left for the third piece, or 20 and 14 inches. This means that the third piece would be at least 14 inches long, but no more than 20, since we don’t have more string than that (20+12+20=52, and 20+14+18=52)

So we can say that x is greater or equal to 14, but less than or equal to 20, or:

14<=x<=20 (“<=“ is written like a normal “<“ sign with a line _ right under it)

81.4% ≅ 81%. The probability that a customer ordered a hot drink given that he or she ordered a large is 81%.

The key to solve this problem is using the conditional probablity equation P(A|B) = P(A∩B)/P(B). Conditional probability is the probability of one event occurring with some relationship to one or more other events.

Similarly to the previous exercise, P(A∩B) is the probability that a customer order a large hot drink. So, P(A∩B) = 22/100 = 0.22

For P(B), is the probability that a customer order a large drink whether hot or cold. P(B) = 27/100 = 0.27

P(A|B) = 0.22/0.27 = 0.814

multiplying by 100%, we obtain 81.4%
