What is Probability?
It is a branch of mathematics that deals with the occurrence of a random event.
Let C be the set of children in class 6 who like crisps, and let Ch be the set of children who like chocolate .
P(C) = 80%
= 0.8
P(Ch|C) = 75%
= 0.75
We want to find P(C ∩ Ch), the probability that a child in class 6 likes both crisps and chocolate.
Using the formula for conditional probability, we have:
P(C ∩ Ch) = P(Ch|C).P(C)
Substituting the values we have:
P(C ∩ Ch) = 0.75 × 0.8
= 0.6
Hence, 60% of the children in class 6 like both crisps and chocolate.
