    Answers: 0.286

    Explanation:

    Let E → major in Engineering

    Let S → Play club sports

    P (E) = 28% = 0.28

    P (S) = 18% = 0.18

    P (E ∩ S) = 8% = 0.08

    Probability of student plays club sports given majoring in engineering,

    P (S | E) = P (E ∩ S) : P (E) = 0.08 : 0.28 = 0.286
