Question

Events A and B are such that P(A) = 3 8 , P(B) = 2 7 and P(A ∩ B) = 1 7 Work out P(A|B)

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{17}{27}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Events A and B are such that $P(A)=38\,,\,P(B)=27$ and P(A∩B) = 17

To find: $P(A|B)$

Solution:

Probability refers to the chances of occurrence of any event.

An event is described as an outcome of a random experiment.

A random experiment is an experiment for which outcomes cannot be predicted.

$P(A|B)=$ P(A∩B) ÷ P(B) = $\frac{17}{27}$
