While watching a game of Champions League football in a cafe, you observe someone who is clearly supporting Manchester United in the game.What is the probability that they were actually born within 25 miles of Manchester ? Assume that: the probability that a randomly selected person in a typical local barenvironment is born within 25 miles of Manchester is 1/20 , and; the chance that a person born within 25 miles of Manchester actuallysupports United is 7/10 ; the probability that a person not born within 25 miles of Manchestersupports United with probability 1/10 .
