From module Introduction to Probability

Problem

On a beach 5050 people are wearing sunglasses and 3535 people are wearing caps. Some people are wearing both sunglasses and caps. If one of the people wearing a cap is selected at random, the probability that this person is also wearing sunglasses is 25\frac{2}{5}. If instead, someone wearing sunglasses is selected at random, what is the probability that this person is also wearing a cap?
