Question
Compute $\text{P}\Big(\frac{\text{A}}{\text{B}}\Big),$ if P(B) = 0.5 and $\text{P}(\text{A}\cap\text{B})=0.32$

Answer

Given,
$\text{P(B)}=0.5,\text{P}(\text{A}\cap\text{B})=0.32$
We know that,
$\text{P}\Big(\frac{\text{A}}{\text{B}}\Big)=\frac{\text{n}(\text{A}\cap\text{B})}{\text{n}(\text{B})}$
$=\frac{0.32}{0.5}$
$=\frac{32}{50}$
$=\frac{16}{25}$
$\text{P}\Big(\frac{\text{A}}{\text{B}}\Big)=\frac{16}{25}$
