Hi there I need help on the below question. I used the Bayes Formula and with that I keep getting 0.3333 for the first questions. I followed the formula but its says my answer is wrong. Please help. Thank you! A new, simple test has been developed to detect a particular type of cancer. The test must be evaluated before it is put into use. A medical researcher selects a random sample of 1 comma 1,000 adults and finds (by other means) that 1% have this type of cancer. Each of the 1 comma 1,000 adults is given the test, and it is found that the test indicates cancer in 97% of those who have it and in 2% of those who do not. Based on these results, what is the probability of a randomly chosen person having cancer given that the test indicates cancer? Of a person having cancer given that the test does not indicate cancer?
