(B) \(1-P(\overline{E}/F)\)
(C) \(1-P(E/F)\)
(D) \(\frac{1-P(E\cup F)}{P(\overline{F})}\)

Step-by-Step Solution

\(P(\overline{E}/\overline{F}) = \frac{P(\overline{E} \cap \overline{F})}{P(\overline{F})}\)
Using De Morgan's Law, \(\overline{E} \cap \overline{F} = \overline{E \cup F}\)
So, \(P(\overline{E}/\overline{F}) = \frac{P(\overline{E \cup F})}{P(\overline{F})}\)
Since \(P(\overline{E \cup F}) = 1 - P(E \cup F)\), we have
\(P(\overline{E}/\overline{F}) = \frac{1 - P(E \cup F)}{P(\overline{F})}\)

Correct Answer: \(\frac{1-P(E\cup F)}{P(\overline{F})}\)
