Consider Guahati (G) and Delhi (D) whose temperatures can be classified as high (H), medium (M) and low (L). Let
denote the probability that Guahati has high temperature. Similarly,
and
denote the probability of Guahati having medium and low temperatures respectively. Similarly, we use
,
and
for Delhi.The following table gives the conditional probabilities for Delhi’s temperature given Guwahati’s temperature.
