Math Question

A medical company tested a new drug on 100 people for possible side effects. This table shows the results.
\begin{tabular}{|l|c|c|c|}
\hline & Side effects & No side effects & Total \\
\hline Adults & 7 & 43 & 50 \\
\hline Children & 22 & 28 & 50 \\
\hline Total & 29 & 71 & 100 \\
\hline
\end{tabular}
Compare the probability that an adult has side effects with the probability that a child has side effects. Draw a conclusion based on your results.
A. \( P( \) side effects \( \mid c h i l d)=0.44 \)
\( P( \) side effectsladult \( )=0.14 \)
Conclusion: Children have a much lower chance of having side effects than adults.
B. \( P \) (side effects|child \( )=0.22 \)
\( P( \) side effects|adult \( )=0.70 \)
