In a certain town, 60% of the people are female. 30% of the females play soccer, and 40% of the males people play soccer. You pick a person at random from the town. What is the probability that the person you picked is female given that they play soccer? You may leave your answer unsimplified.
Solution :
Given that,

The probability that the person you picked is female given that they play soccer is ,
= 0.60 / (0.60 + 0.30)
= 0.60 / 0.90
= 0.667
Probability = 0.667
