A man is equally likely to choose any one of the three routes A, B, C from his office,
and his choice of route is not influenced by the weather. If the weather is dry the probabilities
of his being late by routes A, B, C are respectively 1/20, 1/10, 1/8. He sets out on a dry day and reaches his office late. What is the probability that the route chosen was C?
This is a conditional probability case. let P(L) denote the probability of being late and P(C) be the probability of using route C.
