In addition, suppose that of the companies that use training for process improvement, 86% use training for employee retention. A company that uses training is randomly selected.

a. What is the probability that the company uses training for employee retention and not for process improvement?
b. If it is known that the company uses training for employee retention, what is the probability that it uses training for process improvement?
