Question 410 ptsIn a city 20% of the cars are electric, 16% of the cars are red, and 5% of the cars are red electriccars. If a car is randomly picked and found to be red, what is the probability that this car is electric?Enter your answer as a decimal number rounded to TWO digits after the decimal point, like 0.12.DO NOT enter it like 12% or 12.

Answer 1

We will determine the probability that the car is electric as follows:

$\begin{gathered} P=\frac{16}{100}\ast\frac{5}{100}\Rightarrow P=\frac{1}{125} \\ \\ \Rightarrow P\approx0.01 \end{gathered}$
