In the football game it is quite common that players suffer injuries. THE NFL reported several injuries suffered by players, some of them are minor, moderate and major. The following table presents the reported injuries: 

What is P (G|B)?

**Severity and Occurrence of Injuries among Football Players**

The table below categorizes injuries by their severity and when they occurred—during practice (P) or a game (G). The table also provides the total number of injuries for each category.

| **Severity** | **Practice (P)** | **Game (G)** | **Total** |
|--------------|------------------|--------------|-----------|
| Minor (A)    | 66               | 88           | 154       |
| Moderate (B) | 23               | 44           | 67        |
| Major (C)    | 12               | 23           | 35        |

- **Minor Injuries (A)**: 66 during practice, 88 during games, totaling 154.
- **Moderate Injuries (B)**: 23 during practice, 44 during games, totaling 67.
- **Major Injuries (C)**: 12 during practice, 23 during games, totaling 35.

**Task:**
If one individual is drawn at random from this group of football players, find the following probabilities.
