Probability that the shoplifter is a first time offender


The Bottom Line Gift Boutique has been the target of many shoplifters in the past, but its newly installed camera security system has helped in the apprehension of 240 "sticky-fingered" customers in the last six months.

A breakdown of these 240 shoplifters revealed the following:

Males =140, 80 were first time offenders and 60 were repeat offenders
Females=100, 60 were first time offenders and 40 were repeat offenders.

What is the probability that the shoplifter is a first time offender, given that the shoplifter is a male?
