Question 462480: I appreciate all of the help you have given me, I was failing my math class until I found you. Can you help me with this problem.
Given that P(A)=0.4 AND P(B)=0.5 AND P(A AND B)=0.16 DETERMINE P(B|A).

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
P(B|A)
=P(A and B)/P(A) If you use a Venn diagram you will understand this and you dont have to memorize the formula.
=.16/.4
=.4
