If P(A) = `2/5`, P(B) = `3/10` and P(A ∩ B) = `1/5`, then P(A|B).P(B'|A') is equal to `25/42`.
Explanation:
Given that: P(A) = `2/5`, P(B) = `3/10` and P(A ∩ B) = `1/5`
P(A') = `1 - 2/5 = 3/5`
P(B') = `1 - 3/10 = 7/10`
And P(A' ∩ B') = 1 – P(A ∪ B)
= 1 – [P(A) + P(B) – P(A ∩ B)]
= `1 - [2/5 + 3/10 - 1/5]`
= `1 - [1/5 + 3/10]`
= `1 - 5/10`
= `1/2`
∴ `"P"("A'"/"B'") = ("P"("A'" ∩ "B'"))/("P"("B'"))`
= `(1/2)/(7/10)`
= `5/7`
And `"P"("B'"/"A'") = ("P"("A'" ∩ "B'"))/("P"("A'"))`
= `(1/2)/(3/5)`
= `5/6`
∴ `"P"("A'"/"B'")*"P"("B'"/"A'") = 5/7 xx 5/6`
= `25/42`

Students of under graduation submitted a case study on “Understanding the Probability of Left-Handedness in Children Based on Parental Handedness”. Following Recent studies suggest that roughly 12% of the world population is left-handed. Depending on the parents’ handedness, the chances of having a left-handed child are as follows:
Scenario A: Both parents are left-handed, with a 24% chance of the child being left-handed.
Scenario B: The fathers is right-handed and the mothers left-handed, with a 22% chance of child being left-handed.
Scenario C: The fathers left-handed and the mother is right-handed, with a 17% chance of child being left-handed.
Scenario D: Both parents are right-handed, with a 9% chance of having a left-handed child.
Assuming that scenarios A, B, C and D are equally likely and L denotes the event that the child is left-handed, answer the following questions.
- What is the overall probability that a randomly selected child is left-handed?
- Given that exactly one parent is left-handed, what is the probability that a randomly selected child is left-handed?
- If a child is left-handed, what is the probability that both parents are left-handed?
