Hi I am having troubles with this problem:

Of 400 male and 200 female employees at the Flagstaff Mall, 260 of the men and 100 of the women are on flex-time (flexible working hours). Given that an employee selected at random from this group is on flex-time, what is the probability that the employee is a woman?

so to get the numerator it is basically take the wanted, which in this case is the female flex, which is 100. So you do 100/ the denominator. Try getting the denominator by yourself, and lmk if you cant! :)
