Answer 2

Answer:

B. $\frac{3}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

I got this question correct. :)

• A: Snowboarded
• B: Surfed

P(B|A) = P(A and B) / P(A)

P(Surfed|Snowboarded) = P(Surfed and Snowboarded) / P(Snowboarded)

• Amount surfed and snowboarded: 36
• Total amount snowboarded: 48

P(B|A) = $\frac{36}{48}$ = $\frac{3}{4}$

Apologies for lack of explanation, but I think this will do it.
