Question: A certain herb is grown in three places on Earth. It is known that this herb has medicinal value in treating certain illnesses, but that sometimes it is fatal. In the accompanying table, column two gives the percent of the total herb production of the world that is grown in that location, and the third column gives a percent of the herb from that location that is fatal.

                              % of Total                 Percent Fatal

Lower Amazon                62                              14

Sub-Saharan Africa          25                               6

Newark, New Jersey         13                             1/2

For each location, calculate the probability that a sample of the herb came from that location, if it was found to be fatal.
