The video tutorial explains conditional probability, using examples like rolling a die, smoking and lung cancer, and drawing cards. It introduces the formal equation for conditional probability and emphasizes the importance of correctly setting up the equation. The tutorial provides step-by-step calculations for each example, demonstrating how to apply the formula to real-world scenarios.

What is the probability of drawing a second jack from a deck if the first card drawn was a jack and it was not replaced?

• 1/52

• 4/52

• 3/51

• 1/13

Which of the following is the correct formula for conditional probability?

• P(A|B) = P(B) / P(A)

• P(A|B) = P(A) / P(B)

• P(B|A) = P(B) / P(A and B)

• P(B|A) = P(A and B) / P(A)

What common mistake do students make when using the conditional probability formula?

• Using P(A) in the numerator

• Using P(A) in the denominator

• Using P(B) in the denominator

• Using P(A and B) in the denominator
