Suppose that E and F are two events and that P(E and F) = 0.2 and P(E) = 0.4. What is P(F/E)

The conditional probability is given by

P(F|E) = P(E and F)/P(E)

P(F|E) = 0.2/0.4

P(F|E) = 0.5

P(F|E) = 50%

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the conditional probability is given by

∵ P(B | A) = P(A and B)/P(A)

For the given case,

P(F|E) = P(E and F)/P(E)

Where P(F|E) is the probability of event F occurring given that event E has occurred.

The probability of event E and F is given as

P(E and F) = 0.2

The probability of event E is given as

P(E) = 0.4

So, the conditional probability is

P(F|E) = P(E and F)/P(E)

P(F|E) = 0.2/0.4

P(F|E) = 0.5

P(F|E) = 50%

the correct answer is the second option

i did it myself and i got 4.2 (b) hope its right
