Question
Two teaching methods for a statistics class, online and face-to-face, are available during the course of an academic year. To date, 1 out of every 20 students has failed the online class and 2 out of every 25 students have failed the face-to-face class. However, the online class is only offered 15% of the time due to faculty constraints and the face-to-face class is offered the other 85% of the time. What is the probability that a student who failed the course took the class online? Round your answer to four decimal places. (Do not round intermediate values.
