Question

The probability that it will snow on Sunday is 3/5. The probability that it will snow on both Sunday and Monday is 3/10. What is the probability that it will snow on Monday, if it snowed on Sunday?

Answer 1

Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of snowing on both Sunday and Monday= probability that it will snow on Sunday × probability that it will snow on Monday.

(and usually means multiply the probabilities while or implies addition of the probabilities).

Let probability of snowing on Monday be P

Hence 3/10=3/5× P

Hence P=(3/10) divided by (3/5) = 1/2
