All human blood can be "ABO" typed as belonging to one of group A, B, O, or AB types. The
actual distribution varies slightly among different group of people, but for a randomly chosen
person from North America, the following are the approximate probabilities:Blood type O, A, B,
AB and Probability 0.45, 0.40, 0.11, 0.04. Consider an accident victim with type B blood. She
can only receive a transfusion from a person with type B or type O blood. What is the probability
that a randomly chosen person will be suitable donor?
Solution
The probability that the donor is suitable equals the probability that the blood is
type B or type O is P(B) + P(O) = .45 + .11 = .56
