For a recent evening at a small, old-fashioned movie theater, 35% of the moviegoers were female and 65% were male. There were two movies playing that evening. One was a romantic comedy, and the other was a World War II film. As might be expected, among the females the romantic comedy was more popular than the war film: 70% of the females attended the romantic comedy. Among the male moviegoers, the romantic comedy also was more popular: 60% of the males attended the romantic comedy. No moviegoer attended both movies. Let F denote the event that a randomly chosen moviegoer (at the small theater that evening) was female and ¯F denote the event that a randomly chosen moviegoer was male. Let R denote the event that a randomly chosen moviegoer attended the romantic comedy and ¯R denote the event that a randomly chosen moviegoer attended the war film. Fill in the probabilities below, and then answer the question that follows. Do not round any of your responses

P(F)=0.35
P(F and R)=
P(F and ¯R)=
P(¯R|F)=
P(R|¯F)=0.60
P(¯F and R)=
P(¯F and ¯R)=
P(¯F)=
What is the probability that a randomly chosen moviegoer attended the romantic comedy?
