<span>So we want to know the number from which we take 75% and get 27. If the number we are looking for is x, then the equation to find that x would be: (75/100)*x=27 which says seventy five percent out of x is equal 27. So, x=(27*100)/75. And finally, x= 2700/75=36. So, 75% out of 36 is 27.</span>

You made a mistake with the probability p_{j}, which should be p_{i} in the last expression, so to be clear I will state the expression again.

So we want to solve the following:

Conditioned on this event, show that the probability that her paper is in drawer j, is given by:

(1) \frac{p_{j} }{1-d_{i}p_{i}  } , if j \neq i, and

(2) \frac{p_{i} (1-d_{i} )}{1-d_{i}p_{i}  } , if j = i.

so we can say:

A is the event that you search drawer i and find nothing,

B is the event that you search drawer i and find the paper,

C_{k}  is the event that the paper is in drawer k, k = 1, ..., n.

this gives us:

P(B) = P(B \cap C_{i} ) = P(C_{i})P(B | C_{i} ) = d_{i} p_{i}

P(A) = 1 - P(B) = 1 - d_{i} p_{i}

Solution to Part (1):

if j \neq i, then P(A \cap C_{j} ) = P(C_{j} ),

this means that

P(C_{j} |A) = \frac{P(A \cap C_{j})}{P(A)}  = \frac{P(C_{j} )}{P(A)}  = \frac{p_{j} }{1-d_{i}p_{i}  }

as needed so part one is solved.

Solution to Part(2):

so we have now that if j = i, we get that:

P(C_{j}|A ) = \frac{P(A \cap C_{j})}{P(A)}

remember that:

P(A|C_{j} ) = \frac{P(A \cap C_{j})}{P(C_{j})}

this implies that:

P(A \cap C_{j}) = P(C_{j}) \cdot P(A|C_{j}) = p_{i} (1-d_{i} )

so we just need to combine the above relations to get:

P(C_{j}|A) = \frac{p_{i} (1-d_{i} )}{1-d_{i}p_{i}  }

as needed so part two is solved.

And

In a Percent Form Its:  0.23- %
(I got that from dividing 7 by 30.)

Hope IT helped You. :D
