Exercises: Find Conditional Probability as the Fraction of B's Outcomes That Are Also A
Work through each section in order. To find P(A | B), restrict to B's outcomes first, then count how many of them are also in A: the denominator is the number of B's outcomes, NOT all outcomes. Write probabilities as fractions in lowest terms unless asked otherwise, and interpret each conditional probability with a sentence: "among the B's, this fraction are A."
