    Let the probability that the student is in math club be P (M) and the probability that the student is in science club be P (S)

    P (MIS) = [P (M and S) ]/P (S)

    P (M and S) = 0.03, P (M) = 0.08 and P (S) = 0.16

    plugging the values in the formula we obtain:

    P (MIS) = [0.03]/0.16=0.1875
