Statistics And Probability Question 93
Question: If the events A and B are mutually exclusive, then $ P( \frac{A}{B} )= $
Options:
A) 0
B) 1
C) $ \frac{P,(A\cap B)}{P,(A)} $
D) $ \frac{P,(A\cap B)}{P,(B)} $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
-
$ P( \frac{A}{B} )=\frac{P(A\cap B)}{P(B)} $ Since $ A $ and $ B $ are mutually exclusive. So, $ P(A\cap B)=0 $ . Hence $ P( \frac{A}{B} )=\frac{0}{P(B)}=0 $ .
