Question

The Reviews editor for a certain scientific journal decides whether the review for any
particular book should be short (1–2 pages), medium (3–4 pages), or long (5–6 pages).
Data on recent reviews indicates that 60% of them are short, 30% are medium, and the
other 10% are long. Reviews are submitted in either Word or LaTeX. For short reviews,
80% are in Word, whereas 50% of medium reviews are in Word and 30% of long reviews
are in Word. Suppose a recent review is randomly selected.
(a) What is the probability that the selected review was submitted in Word format?
(b) If the selected review was submitted in Word format, what are the probabilities of
it being short, medium and long? (You need to find three probabilities)
