Question: The probability that a student passes a class is p ( P ) =0.59. The probability that a student studied for a class is p

The probability that a student passes a class isp(P) =0.59.

The probability that a student studied for a class isp(S) =0.56.

The probability that a student passes a class given that he or she studied for the class isp(P/S) =0.77.

What is the probability that a student studied for the class, given that he or she passed the class(p(S/P))?

Hint:Use Bayes' theorem. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

p(S/P) =
