Answer:
(1)/(3)

Explanation:

Given

total no of boys =12

total no of girls=18

Probability that of getting a freshman provided it is a boy


\Rightarrow P(\text{freshman}|\text{boy})=\frac{\text{P(Freshman and boy)}}{\text{boy}}\\\\\Rightarrow P(F|B)=(P(F\cap B))/(P(B))=(4)/(12)\\\\\\Rightarrow P(F|B)=(1)/(3)
