According to Bayes' Theorem, the probability of event A, given that event B has occurred, is as follows: \[ P(A|B) = \frac{P(A) \cdot P(B|A)}{P(A) \cdot P(B|A) + P(A^{'}) \cdot P(B|A^{'})} \] Use Bayes' Theorem to find \( P(A|B) \) using the probabilities shown below. \[ P(A) = \frac{5}{6}, \quad P(A^{'}) = \frac{1}{6}, \quad P(B|A) = \frac{1}{10}, \quad \text{and} \quad P(B|A^{'}) = \frac{7}{10} \] --- The probability of event A, given that event B has occurred, is \( P(A|B) = \square \).

Question
According to Bayes' Theorem, the probability of event A, given that event B has occurred, is as follows:

\[ P(A|B) = \frac{P(A) \cdot P(B|A)}{P(A) \cdot P(B|A) + P(A^{'}) \cdot P(B|A^{'})} \]

Use Bayes' Theorem to find \( P(A|B) \) using the probabilities shown below.

\[ P(A) = \frac{5}{6}, \quad P(A^{'}) = \frac{1}{6}, \quad P(B|A) = \frac{1}{10}, \quad \text{and} \quad P(B|A^{'}) = \frac{7}{10} \]

The probability of event A, given that event B has occurred, is \( P(A|B) = \square \).
