Color blindness is a sex-linked, inherited condition that is much more common among men than women. Suppose that 3% of all men and 0.4% of all women are color-blind. A person is chosen at random and found to be color-blind. What is the probability that the person is male? (You may assume that 50% of the population are men and 50% are women.) The conditional probability that a person is male is. (Type an integer or a fraction.)
