Answer:

0.63

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

$C \ = \ Californians \ (registered \ voters) \ preferrin g \ life \ in \ prison \ without \ parole \ over \ the \ death \\ penalty \ for \ a \ person \ convicted \ of \ first \ degree \ murder.$ P(C) = 0.48

L = Latino Californians

P(L) = 0.364

∴

P(C/L) = 0.63
