The probability that a student passes an test is 0.92, given that he studied. The probability that he passes the test without studying is 0.15. As he is a diligent student, we know that the probability that the student studies for a test is just 80%. Given the student passed the exam, determine the probability that he studied. Use a calculator to simplify your answer, and round it to three decimal places.
