Question

Suppose that E and F are two events and that Upper P left parenthesis Upper E and Upper F right parenthesis equals 0.1 and Upper P left parenthesis Upper E right parenthesis equals 0.2. What is Upper P left parenthesis F|E right parenthesis​

Answer 1

The value of
`P((F)/(E))` is
`(1)/(2)`

Explanation:

Given,

`P(E\cap F)=0.1`

`P(E)=0.2`

Thus, by the conditional probability formula,

`P((F)/(E))=(P(E\cap F))/(P(E))`

By substituting the values,

`P((F)/(E))=(0.1)/(0.2)`

`=(1)/(2)`
