Event v occurs 28% of the time on tuesdays.
and event v and event w occur together 19%
of the time on tuesdays. given that event v
occurs on a tuesday, what is the probability
that event w occurs with event v?
a. 47%
b. 58%
c. 68%
d. 75%

68%

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of occurrence of Event v = P(v) = 28% = 0.28

Probability of occurrence of both Events v and Event w together = P(v and w) = 19% = 0.19

We have to find what is the probability  that event w occurs with event v given that event v  occurs on a Tuesday. This is a conditional probability. In other words we have to find what is the probability of event w given that event v occurs of Tuesday. i.e we have to find P(w|v)

The formula to calculate this conditional probability is:

Using the given values, we get:

Therefore, the probability that even w will occur with event v given that event v occurs on Tuesday is 68%

60%
