Question:

Lactose intolerance causes difficulty in digesting dairy products that contain lactose (milk sugar). It is particularly common among people of African and Asian ancestry. In the United States (not including other groups and people who consider themselves to belong to more than one race), 82% of the population is White, 14% is Black, and 4% is Asian. Moreover, 15% of Whites, 70% of Blacks, and 90% of Asians are lactose intolerant. Suppose we select a U.S. person at random and find that the person is lactose intolerant. What’s the probability that she or he is Asian?
