Question 326558: A number greater than 3, given that the circle is yellow.
There are 6 circles. The 1st is yellow, the 2nd is green, the 3rd, 4th, and 5th are orange and the 6th is yellow.
Assume that 1 circle is selected at random and each circle is equally likely to be selected. Determine the probability of selecting.

A number greater than 3, given that the circle is yellow.
There are 6 circles. The 1st is yellow, the 2nd is green, the 3rd, 4th, and 5th are orange and the 6th is yellow.
Assume that 1 circle is selected at random and each circle is equally likely to be selected.
Determine the probability of selecting:
P(yellow) = 2/6
P(green) = 1/6
P(orange) = 3/6
