Explain conditional probability and independence in everyday language and situations.
Rewrite a plain-English probability claim in notation by identifying the condition and the event
Problem
Represent “\(70\%\) of students in band also play sports” in notation, using band as the conditioned group.
Big Picture
What this problem is really about
The words of students in band make band the denominator group, while playing sports is the measured outcome. We’ll place the target before the bar and condition after it, attach the stated rate, and read the finished notation aloud to check that it was not reversed.
