Answer

Step 1

A= event to draw 47Ω resistor

B= event to draw a resistor with 5% tolerance

c = event to draw 100Ω resistor

P(A/B) = probability of selecting a resistor with 47Ω value given that the resistance has 5% tolerance

P(A/C) = probability of selecting a resistor with 47Ω value , given that we have already selected a
resistor with 100 Ω value

P(B/C) = probability of selecting a resistor with 5% tolerance given that the resistance has 100Ω
value

Step 2

P(A/B) ( according to Baye's theorem) =

P (A∩B)

P (B)

where P(A∩B)= probability of resistor have both 47Ω and 5% tolerance.

= 28

100
( from the table)

P(B)= probability of resistor with 5% tolerance

= 62

100
( from table)

thus P(A/B)= 28

62
P(A/C) since both A and C are independent events P(A/C) = P(A) = 44

100

P(B/C)= =
P (B∩C) 24

P (C) 32
