Answer:

P(F | C) = 0.96

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi!

This is a problem on conditional probability. Lets call:

C = { cloudy day }

F = { foggy day }

Then F ∩ C = { cloudy and foggy day }

You are asked for P(F | C), the probability of a day being foggy given it is cloudy. By definition:

$P(F|C)=\frac{P(F\bigcap C)}{P(C)}$

And the data you have is:

$P(C) = 0.57\\P(F \bigcap C) =0.55$

Then: P(F | C) = 0.96
