0.43

Answer 1

The probability that a flight that departs on schedule also arrives on schedule can be calculated using the conditional probability formula:

P(arrive on schedule | depart on schedule) = P(arrive on schedule and depart on schedule) / P(depart on schedule)

P(arrive on schedule | depart on schedule) = 0.69 / 0.81
P(arrive on schedule | depart on schedule) = 0.853

Therefore, the probability that a flight that departs on schedule also arrives on schedule is 0.85.

The closest option is 0.85.
