Given two independent events A and B such that P (A) = 0.3 and P (B) = 0.6. Find P (B/A) .
उत्तर
\[\text{ Given } : \]
\[\text{ A and B are independent events } .\]
\[P\left( A \right) = 0 . 3\]
\[P\left( B \right) = 0 . 6\]
\[P\left( \frac{B}{A} \right) = \frac{P\left( A \cap B \right)}{P\left( A \right)}\]
\[ = \frac{0 . 18}{0 . 3}\]
\[ = 0 . 6\]
