Maria will take two books with her on a trip. Suppose that the probability that she will like book 1 is .6, the 2is .5,andtheprobability that she will like both books is .4. Find the conditional probability that she will like book 2 given that she did not like book 1.

0.25 is the required probability.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Probability that like book 1 = 0.6

Probability that like book 2 = 0.5

Probability that Maria likes both the books = 0.4

We have to find the conditional probability that she will like book 2 given that she did not like book 1.

Thus, we have to evaluate:

0.25 is the conditional probability that Maria will like book 2 given that she did not like book 1.
