EBook keeps records that show the number of unacceptable downloads done by each format. Based on past data, the probability that an EBook came from Format 1 and was unacceptable is 0.03 and the probability that an Ebook came from Format 2 and was unacceptable is 0.08. These probabilities represent the probability of one EBook out of the total sample having the specified characteristics.
