    For the answer to the question above asking what is the probability that a randomly selected student will be a boy that brings his lunch to school? I'll provide a solution for the following problem below.

    P (boy |lunch) = P (boy and lunch) / P (lunch) = 0.40

    P (boy and lunch) = P (lunch) * 0.4 = 0.3*0.4 = 0.12
