Northwest Furniture Factory makes desks. Inspectors find that the probability that a desk has a structural defect is 0.03, the probability that it has a defect in finish is 0.07, and the probability of both kinds of defect is 0.02. A desk is randomly selected. Find the probability that a desk has structural defect, given that it has a defect in finish.
