Answer

a. 0.011 b. 0.222 c. 0.054 d. 0.337 e. 0.436

Work Step by Step

a. P(US and postgrad) = 84/7690 = 0.011 b. P(US|postgrad) = P(postgrad and US)/P(postgrad) = 84/7690 / 379/7690 = 0.222 c. P(postgrad|US) = P(US and postgrad)/P(US) = 84/7690 / 1557/7690 = 0.054 d. P(primary|China) = P(China and primary)/P(China) = 506/7690 / 1502/7690 = 0.337 e. P(China|primary) = P(primary and China)/P(primary) = 506/7690 / 1161/7690 = 0.436
