Basic Math

Human blood is largely divided in to four blood groups (A, B,AB, and O) and also (separately) into            Rh-positiveand Rh-negative. (There are also some very rare blood groupings,such as Mumbai, Lutheran, Kell, and Kipp.) This is very importantin medicine, since a person may die or suffer serious harm if theyreceive a transfusion from an incompatible donor. According to theStanford University School of Medicine Blood Center, thedistribution of blood groups/types in the United States is asfollows:

Blood Group

A

B

AB

0

Total

RH factor positive

714

170

68

748

RH factor negative

126

30

12

132

Total

Complete the table by filling in the “total” row and the “total”column.

Calculate P(blood group O)

Calculate P( Group O and Rh positive)

Calculate P( Group O or Rh-negative)

Calculate P( Group O and Rh-negative )

Calculate P( not group A)   

Calculate P( Rh factor negative | group O )

Is being blood group O independent of being Rh factornegative?
