  • $\begingroup$ Am I understanding this correctly for part (b)? For sample 9, I will calculate $P(G=1)P(O=0,B=1,C=0,A=1|G=1)$ and $P(G=0)P(O=0,B=1,C=0,A=1|G=0)$ and choose which ever one is higher. Is that correct? $\endgroup$ Commented May 14, 2019 at 16:37

    $\begingroup$ Yes, that is a partial of the problem you are solving. The next step is that you are approximating the second P by assuming independence. Are you familiar with Bayes Rule? Basically you are calculating which type of restaurant is the most likely candidate to generate the observed variables, times the relative chance that you would encounter such a restaurant. $\endgroup$ Commented May 16, 2019 at 15:22
