Find the conditional probability of the indicated event when two fair dice (one red and one green) are rolled.
The red one is 6, given that the sum is 8.
In a certain year, the probability that a person in the United States would declare personal bankruptcy was 0.005. The probability that a person in the United States would declare personal bankruptcy and had recently experienced a "big three" event (loss of job, medical problem, or divorce or separation) was 0.004. What was the probability that a person had recently experienced one of the "big three" events, given that she had declared personal bankruptcy? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
