How to complete a tree diagram? The question: "When Ivan goes to school in winter, the probability that he wears a hat is 5/8. If he wears a hat, the probability that he wears a scarf is 2/3. If he does not wear a hat, the probability that he wears a scarf is 1/6.
|dw:1399790837939:dw|
the probability that he wears a hat is 5/8 so on the branch that says "hat" you write 5/8 the "no hat" branch is 3/8 since 1 - (5/8) = 3/8 |dw:1399791003942:dw|
Then it states " If he wears a hat, the probability that he wears a scarf is 2/3" so on the "hat" branch, we'll have 2/3 for scarf and 1/3 for no scarf |dw:1399791136275:dw|
Finally, "If he does not wear a hat, the probability that he wears a scarf is 1/6" means we have 1/6 on the scarf (under no hat) and 5/6 for "no scarf" |dw:1399791189423:dw|
