Answer:
40%
Step-by-step explanation:
From the given statements:
The probability that it rains on Saturday is 25%.
P(Sunday)=25%=0.25
Given that it rains on Saturday, the probability that it rains on Sunday is 50%.
P(Sunday|Saturday)=50%=0.5
Given that it does not rain on Saturday, the probability that it rains on Sunday is 25%.
P(Sunday|No Rain on Saturday)=25%=0.25
We are to determine the probability that it rained on Saturday given that it rained on Sunday, P(Saturday|Sunday).
P(No rain on Saturday)=1-P(Saturday)=1-0.25=0.75
Using Bayes Theorem for conditional probability:
P(Saturday|Sunday)=
=
=0.4
There is a 40% probability that it rained on Saturday given that it rains on Sunday.
