Conditional Probability = 0.0218

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of finalists given that the individuals winning a green card are obtained below:

Let G is green card and F was a finalist.

Substitute 1,31,000 for P (G∩F) and 6,000,000 for P (F)

P (G|F) = P (G∩F) / P (F) = 1,31,000 / 6,000,000

=0.0218
