A bank offers loan to its customers on different types of interest namely, fixed rate, floating rate and variable rate. From the past data with the bank, it is known that a customer avails loan on fixed rate, floating rate or variable rate with probabilities 10%, 20% and 70% respectively. A customer after availing loan can pay the loan or default on loan repayment. The bank data suggests that the probability that a person defaults on loan after availing it at fixed rate, floating rate and variable rate is 5%, 3% and 1% respectively.

Based on the above information, answer the following:

  1. What is the probability that a customer after availing the loan will default on the loan repayment?   [2]
  2. A customer after availing the loan, defaults on loan repayment. What is the probability that he availed the loan at a variable rate of interest?   [2]
