Hi
A test was given to a group of students. The grades and gender are summarized below
A B C Total
Male 19 20 2 41
Female 6 15 17 38
Total 25 35 19 79
If one student is chosen at random from those who took the test,
Find the probability that the student got a 'B' GIVEN they are male
P(A|B) = P(A and B)/P(B)
P(B | M) = %2820%2F79%29%2F%2835%2F79%29 = 20/35
