Question 1095546: Assume that one number from 1 to 7 is equally likely to be selected at random. Each number corresponds to one of the seven figures. Determine the probability of selecting an even number, given that a square is selected.
1-yellow circle
2- red triangle
3- blue square
4- red square
5- yellow circle
6- blue triangle
7- red circle
You can put this solution on YOUR website! "... given that a square was selected" means there are only two possibilities -- the selection was 3, blue square, or 4, red square.
Only one of those two possibilities has an even number.
