Okay, here we have this:

We need to compute the probability that a randomly selected student speaks French, given that the student is female.

So, we obtain the following:

[tex]\begin{gathered} P(French|Female)=\frac{P(FrenchandFemale)}{P(Female)} \\ =\frac{\frac{3}{43}}{\frac{19}{43}} \\ =\frac{3}{19}\text{ or 0.1579} \end{gathered}[/tex]
