Answer:

[tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The conditional probability P(W|X) means "Probability of W happening GIVEN THAT X has happened".

We want to find P(Trig|Male). This would mean, we want people who are male...then we look, how many of them took Trig.

Looking at the table, row and column of Trig & Male is "8".

Hence, Probability would be 8/48  [48 is the total number of people, given in right bottom most part of the table]

8/48 = 1/6

Correct answer is 2nd option, 1/6
