Question

Mark was on a softball team that plays Wednesday and Friday nights. The team's season wrapped up, and Mark looked at their wins and losses. He drew a Venn diagram using two circles: Circle A represents all of the games played on Friday and Circle B shows all of the games they won (on either day).

What proportion of the team's wins occurred on Friday? Answer choices are rounded to the hundredths place.

I have the formula but unsure of where to place each factor. If someone would help me step by step I think I will be able to practice on my own, as this is from a challenge quiz I need to complete prior to my exam. The multiple choices are below. Thank you

0.71

0.55

0.33

0.46

0.30

0.86

Explanation / Answer

We essentially need to find the value of probability of A divided by the total probability of Won happening which is the intersection of Friday and Winning divided by Circle B shows all of the games they won

Thus it is given as 6/(6+5)=0.5454 i.e 0.55 answer B
