... number of men to get the number who don't walk, then divide this by the total number of men: (109,059 25,146)/(109,059). Or, you could calculate the probability that a man walks for exercise and then subtract it from 1 to get the probability that he does not walk for exercise: 1 - (25,146/109,059). ...

... their probabilities sum to 14 . Meanwhile, P(B) = 12 so P(A|B) = 14 / 12 = 12 . On the other hand, P(A) = 38 since A = {HHT, HTH, THH}. Thus, (1.6) finds that the probability of interest, P(B|A), is equal to 23 . An iterated form of Bayes’ theorem: Suppose next that S = 1≤k≤N Aj is the union of N p ...

Ars Conjectandi
Ars Conjectandi (Latin for The Art of Conjecturing) is a book on combinatorics and mathematical probability written by Jakob Bernoulli and published in 1713, eight years after his death, by his nephew, Niklaus Bernoulli. The seminal work consolidated, apart from many combinatorial topics, many central ideas in probability theory, such as the very first version of the law of large numbers: indeed, it is widely regarded as the founding work of that subject. It also addressed problems that today are classified in the twelvefold way, and added to the subjects; consequently, it has been dubbed an important historical landmark in not only probability but all combinatorics by a plethora of mathematical historians. The importance of this early work had a large impact on both contemporary and later mathematicians; for example, Abraham de Moivre.Bernoulli wrote the text between 1684 and 1689, including the work of mathematicians such as Christiaan Huygens, Gerolamo Cardano, Pierre de Fermat, and Blaise Pascal. He incorporated fundamental combinatorial topics such as his theory of permutations and combinations—the aforementioned problems from the twelvefold way—as well as those more distantly connected to the burgeoning subject: the derivation and properties of the eponymous Bernoulli numbers, for instance. Core topics from probability, such as expected value, were also a significant portion of this important work.
