On any given Monday Jace may go for a river valley jog. If it is sunny outside, there is a 0.75 probability that he will go for a jog. If it is not sunny, the probability that Jace goes for a jog is 0.35. Next Monday, the weather channel predicts a probability of 0.60 that it will be sunny. Given that Jace goes for a jog next Monday, what is the probability that it was sunny outside? Hint: This is conditional probability and you will need to tree diagram and use: Math: Probability
