The probability of a woman exposed to German Measles will contract it is 0.2. If exposed to risk while pregnant the probability is 0.1 that the child will suffer a particular serious birth defect; otherwise the chances of this birth defect are 0.01. A child was born with this birth defect, what is the probability that the mother suffered from German Measles while pregnant?
