N = probability of accidents that happens at night
A = " " " that are alcohol related
P(N) = 0.6, P(A) = 0.52 and P(AnN) = 0.37
P(A/N) = P(AnN)/p(N) = 0.37/ 0.52 = 0.71
P(N/A) = P(AnN)/p(A) = 0.37/0.6 = 0.61
A = " " " that are alcohol related
P(N) = 0.6, P(A) = 0.52 and P(AnN) = 0.37
P(A/N) = P(AnN)/p(N) = 0.37/ 0.52 = 0.71
P(N/A) = P(AnN)/p(A) = 0.37/0.6 = 0.61
