Two Basic Rules of Probability · Exercise 1

A local restaurant knows that the probability that a customer will order a pizza is 87%. The restaurant also knows that the probability that a customer will order a salad is 32%. Of the customers who order pizzas, 55% of them also order a salad.

In this problem, let:
• Z = event that a customer orders a pizza
• S = event that a customer orders a salad

Suppose that one customer is randomly selected.

Find P(Z).
