Answer:

0.57

Explanation:

Given that:

food = f ; c = clothes

P(f) = 0.76

P(C) = 0.49

P(fnC) = 0.28

Suppose a shopper is selected from the store at random and learn that they buy clothes. What is the probability that the shopper also buys food?

P(f Given C) = P(f | C)

P(f | c) = p(fnC) / p(C)

P(f | c) = 0.28 / 0.49

P(f | c) = 0.5714

P(f | c) = 0.57
