In this problem, the event A is that "a student owns a credit card".
The probability of this event is P(A) = 0.43.
The event B is that "a student is a freshman".
The probability of this event is P(B) = 0.6.
Also, you are given that P(A ∩ B) = 0.21.
Here (A ∩ B) is the intersection of events A and B, "that a student owns a credit card and is a freshman".
They ask you about the conditional probability P( A | B).
By the definition, the conditional probability P( A | B) is this ratio
P( A | B) = P(A ∩ B) / P(B). (1)
Now, when you know everything, all you need to do is to substitute the given data into the formula (1)
P( A | B) =
