- The conditional probability of E given that F occur is P(EF)= _____________. So in rolling a die the conditional probability of the event E. “getting a six,” given that the event F, “getting an even number.” has occurred is P(EF)= ____________.arrow_forwardThe conditional probability of E given that F occurs is P(EF)=___________.
