  1. Conditional Probability

  2. Conditional Probability • Contains a condition that limits (or restricts)the sample space for an event

  3. Conditional Probability • Written as “The probability of event B, given event A”

  4. Conditional Probability Formula

  5. The table shows the results of a class survey, “Do you own a pet?” Find P(own a pet | female). Total of 14 Females. How many in this group own a pet?

  6. The table shows the results of a class survey, “Did you wash the dishes last night?” Find P(wash the dishes | male). Total of 15 males. How many in this group washed the dishes
