Question

The probability that Bob and Chris go to the movies is 0.35. The probability that Chris goes to the movies is 0.5. What is the probability that Bob goes to the movies given that Chris goes

Answer 1

Answer:

$P(B/C)=0.7$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

The probability that Bob and Chris go to the movies $P(BnC)= 0.35.$

The probability that Chris goes to the movies $P(C)= 0.5$

Generally the equation for the probability that Bob goes to the movies given that Chris goes P(B/C) is mathematically given by

 $P(B/C)=\frac{ P(BnC)}{P(C)}$

Therefore

 $P(B/C)=\frac{0.35)}{0.5}$

 $P(B/C)=0.7$
