Explanation / Answer

P(Company A) = 0.392

P(Company B) = 0.35

P(Company C) = 0.258

P(vehicle sold was car | company A) = 0.388

P(vehicle sold was car | company B) = 0.37

P(vehicle sold was car | company C) = 0.332

P(vehicle sold was car) = P(vehicle sold was car | company A) * P(company A) + P(vehicle sold was car | company B) * P(company B) + P(vehicle sold was car | company C) * P(company C)

= 0.388 * 0.392 + 0.37 * 0.35 + 0.332 * 0.258

= 0.367

P(Company A | vehicle sold was car) =  0.388 * 0.392 / 0.367 = 0.414
