For the given question, we will use the following rule of conditional probability:

[tex]\begin{gathered} P(M\text{ }and\text{ }N)=P(M)*P(N|M) \\ \\ So,\text{ }P(N|M)=\frac{P(M\text{ }and\text{ }N)}{P(M)} \end{gathered}[/tex]

We need to find P(liberal | State B)

Let N = liberal, and M = state B

So, the total number of voters from state B = 35

And the number of voters is liberal from state B = 21

So, the probability will be as follows:

[tex]P(liberal|StateB)=\frac{21}{35}=0.6[/tex]

So, the answer will be option 4) 0.6
