Explain conditional probability and independence in everyday language and situations.
Rewrite probability notation as a plain-English claim
Problem
State \(P(A|B)=0.70\) in plain English, using the outcomes where \(B\) occurs as the reference group.
Big Picture
What this problem is really about
Plain-English conditional meaning begins by restricting attention to the event after the bar. We’ll identify B as that reference group, identify A as the outcome counted within it, convert the decimal to a percent, and avoid describing either all outcomes or the reversed group.
