In a recent survey in a Statistics class, it was determined that only 60% of the students
attend class on Thursday. From past data it was noted that 98% of those who went to class
on Thursday pass the course, while only 20% of those who did not go to class on Thursday
passed the course.
(a) What percentage of students is expected to pass the course?

on Thursday.
