Question

A math teacher gave her class two tests. 76% of the class passed the first test. 58% of the class passed both tests. What is the approximate probability that a student who passed the second test, given that he passed the first test.

Answer 1

P(test 2 | test 1) = P(test 2∩test 1) ÷ P(test 1)
P(test 2 | test 1) = 0.58 ÷ 0.76
P(test 2 | test 1) = 0.76 ≈ rounded to two decimal places
