Answer:

The correct option is D.

But option B is correct if P(A) = P(B).

Explanation:

P(A|B) is read as "The probability of A given B".

It is different from the options A, B, and C.

It is equal to option B only if the probability of A is equal to the probability of B. That is P(A|B) = P(B|A) if P(A) = P(B).
