Jackson requests blood tests on 6 % of her patients. An auditor randomly selects patients
from the past week and discovers that the patient had a blood test as a result of the
physician visit. Knowing this information, what is the probability that the patient saw
Dr. Sarabia? For what percentage of all patients at this practice are blood tests
requested?
