At a pet store, 67% of customers get a leash for their dog. Only 32% of customers get a leash for their dog and get their dog a treat. What is the probability that a customer who gets a leash for their dog also gets their dog a treat?

Answer:

The probability of a customer getting a leash for their dog along with a treat for their doctors is 1/2.09

Explanation:

This is example of conditional probability.

Let A represents the % of customer getting a leash for their dogs

Let B represents the % customer getting a leash + treat for their dogs

As we know-

P(A|B)=P(A and B)/P(B)

So the probability is

P(A|B)= 0.32/0.67 = 1/2.09
