Question 265192
In a certain class, 40% of students are seniors, 15% of the students are failing, and 10% are seniors who are failing. What is the conditional probability that a student is failing given that he/she is a senior?
-----------------------------------
P(failing|senior) = P(failing and senior)/P(senior) = 0.10/0.40 = 1/4
