Less than 5hrs. (5 to10hrs) (More than 10) Total

Male (M) 25 ------- 25----------20----------- 70
Female (F) 20-------30-------- - 15---------- 65
Total ---45------55--------- -35-----------135
b. 5-10 hours is 55/135 or 11/27
c.this is 25/135 or 5/27
d. female is 65, more than 10 hours is 35, and that is 100. Subtract both (double counted) 15=85/135 or 17/27
e. Given female (65), and more than 10 hours (15) so that joint is 15/65 or 3/13
f. given less than 5 hours (45) probability a male is 25, so 25/45 or 5/9.
