A certain firm has plants a, b, and c producing respectively 35\%, 15\%, and 50\% of the total output. The probabilities of a nondefective product are, respectively, 0.75, 0.95, and 0.85. A customer receives a defective product. What is the probability that it came from plant c?

The proportion of production that is defective and from plant A is

... 0.35·0.25 = 0.0875

The proportion of production that is defective and from plant B is

... 0.15·0.05 = 0.0075

The proportion of production that is defective and from plant C is

... 0.50·0.15 = 0.075

Thus, the proportion of defective product that is from plant C is

... 0.075/(0.0875 +0.0075 +0.075) = 75/170 = 15/34 ≈ 44.12%

_____

P(C | defective) = P(C&defective)/P(defective)
