Find P(B|A) and P(A|B) for Independent Events

$P (B) = 0.87$ , $P (A) = 0.13$

Step 1

Two events are independent events when the occurrence of one does not affect the probability of the other. In this case, $P (B | A) = P (B)$ and $P (A | B) = P (A)$ .

$P (B | A) = P (B) = 0.87$

$P (A | B) = P (A) = 0.13$
