If 90% of the households in a certain region have an answering machines and 50% have both answering machines and call waiting, what is the probability that a household chosen at random and found to have an answering machine also has call waiting?
This is what I think...(Am I correct?)
P(answering and call waiting/answering machine)=(.50/.90)=.56 or 56%

DIdn't the probem state that 50 percent have both? Am I missing something here?
I don't read a conditional probabality on the fifty percent.
