Seven mixed cards numbered 1–7 are in a box. One is drawn randomly and known to be odd. Find the conditional probability that it exceeds four (integer %).
Conditioning on odd restricts the equally likely possibilities to {1,3,5,7}. Two, namely 5 and 7, exceed four. Conditional probability = 2/4 = **50%**.
