At a mortgage company, 60% of calls are answered by an attendant. The remaining 40% of callers leave their phone numbers. Of these 40%, 75% receive a return phone call the same day. The remaining 25% receive a return call the next day. Of those who initially spoke to an attendant, 80% will apply for a mortgage. Of those who received a return call the same day, 60% will apply. Of those who received a return call the next day, 40% will apply. Calculate the probability that a person initially spoke to an attendant, given that he or she applied for a mortgage.
Unitary Method
The word “unitary” comes from the word “unit”, which means a single and complete entity. In this method, we find the value of a unit product from the given number of products, and then we solve for the other number of products.
Speed, Time, and Distance
Imagine you and 3 of your friends are planning to go to the playground at 6 in the evening. Your house is one mile away from the playground and one of your friends named Jim must start at 5 pm to reach the playground by walk. The other two friends are 3 miles away.
Profit and Loss
The amount earned or lost on the sale of one or more items is referred to as the profit or loss on that item.
Units and Measurements
Measurements and comparisons are the foundation of science and engineering. We, therefore, need rules that tell us how things are measured and compared. For these measurements and comparisons, we perform certain experiments, and we will need the experiments to set up the devices.
At a mortgage company, 60% of calls are answered by an attendant. The
remaining 40% of callers leave their phone numbers. Of these 40%, 75%
receive a return phone call the same day. The remaining 25% receive a
return call the next day.
Of those who initially spoke to an attendant, 80% will apply for a mortgage.
Of those who received a return call the same day, 60% will apply. Of those
who received a return call the next day, 40% will apply.
Calculate the probability that a person initially spoke to an attendant, given
that he or she applied for a mortgage.
