conditional probablilty
  1. conditional probablilty of A given B is the probability of event A happening given that event B happens
    1. you can see in a question when conditional probability is used, when it is says 'without replacement'
    2. if events A and B are independent, then P(A given B) = P(A) and P(B given A) = P(B)
      1. if events A & B are dependent, then P(A and B) = P(A) x P(B given A)
        1. the probability of events A and B both happening is equal to the probability of event A happening multiplied by the probability of event B happening given that event A happens.
        2. on tree diagrams, if you want one instance you're investigating at the end, times the probabilities in both the steps. if you need probability of one option or another, than add the probabilities of each
