Answer:
<em>The probability is 42%</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Conditional Probability</u>
It's the probability of the occurrence of an event B knowing that an event A has already occurred and A and B are related (not independent).
If P(A) is the probability of occurrence of A, is the probability of both events to occur, and P(B|A) is the required probability occurrence of B:
We know a high school marching band has 125 members, from which 41 are seniors (event B), 24 play the trumpet (event A), and 10 are seniors who play the trumpet.
The probability that a randomly selected band member plays the trumpet is
The probability that he or she has both attributes is
Thus, the required conditional probability is
The probability is 42%
