Answer:

Please check explanations for answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us choose 4 and 6

When we talk of the greatest common factor, we mean the highest number that is a factor of both numbers

The factors of 4 are 1,2,2 and 4

Factors of 6 are 1,2,3 and 6

So as we can see the only common factors to both are 1,2 but the highest here is 2

The least common multiple refers to the smallest number which divides 4 and 6 at the same time without leaving a remainder

Multiples of 4 are 4,8,12 , 16,20 •••••

multiples of 6 are 6,12,18,24

As we can see, the lowest common number to both is 12

The issue of corporate tax reform has been cause for much debate in the United States. Among those in the legislature, 27% are R
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

The probability Democrat is selected given that this member favors some type of corporate tax reform is 0.6309.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us suppose that,

R = Republicans

D = Democrats

I = Independents.

X = a member favors some type of corporate tax reform.

The information provided is:

P (R) = 0.27

P (D) = 0.56

P (I) = 0.17

P (X|R) = 0.34

P (X|D) = 0.41

P (X|I) = 0.25.

Compute the probability that a randomly selected member favors some type of corporate tax reform as follows:

P(X)=P(X|R)P(R)+P(X|D)P(D)+P(X|I)P(I)\\= (0.34\times0.27)+(0.41\times0.56)+(0.25\times0.17)\\=0.3639

The probability that a randomly selected member favors some type of corporate tax reform is P (X) = 0.3639.

Compute the probability Democrat is selected given that this member favors some type of corporate tax reform as follows:

P(D|X)=\frac{P(X|D)P(D)}{P(X)} =\frac{0.41\times0.56}{0.3639}=0.6309

Thus, the probability Democrat is selected given that this member favors some type of corporate tax reform is 0.6309.
