Accepted characters: numbers, decimal point
markers (period or comma), sign indicators (-), spaces (e.g., as thousands
separator, 5 000), “E” or “e” (used in scientific
notation). NOTE: For scientific notation, a period MUST be used as the
decimal point marker.
Complex numbers should be in the form (a + bi) where “a” and
“b” need to have explicitly stated values.
For example: {1+1i} is valid whereas {1+i} is not. {0+9i} is valid whereas
{9i} is not.

This dAssessment drastically raised the price of imported products. According to a survey conducted by AC Nielsen in April 2002, 68% of the consumers in Argentina were buying fewer products than before the dAssessment, 24% were buying the same number of products, and 8% were buying more products. Furthermore, in a trend toward purchasing less-expensive brands, 88% indicated that they had changed the brands they purchased. Suppose the following complete set of results were reported. Use the following data to answer this question. Number of Products Purchased Brands Purchased Fewer Same More Total Same 10 14 24 48 Changed 262 82 8 352 Total 272 96 32 400 Given that a consumer changed brands, what then is the probability that the consumer purchased fewer products than before?
