What story and one-digit Natural Numbers explain Bayes' Theorem chart most simply?
- Some students have sniveled that most examples of Bayes' Theorem use non-integer numbers. I want to try a Bayes' Theorem chart that uses just single digit Natural Numbers $\le 9$. To complete the table below most comfortably for teenagers,
- 1. what are the simplest stories?
- 2. what natural numbers ≤ 9 contrast the base rate fallacy the most? Please don't repeat a number.
- [The biggest number in this similar question](https://matheducators.stackexchange.com/q/16977/15364) still uses two digits, and rehashes the common example of letting D be be a disease and $H_0$ be a negative (diagnostic) test result. What other $H_0, D$ are more intuitive? Green denotes true positive and negative, red false positive and negative.
- $\begin{array}{r|cc|c}
\text{Number of occurrences}&D &\lnot D &\text{Total}\\ \hlineH_a &\color{green}{\Pr(D)\Pr(+|D)}&\color{red}{\Pr(D^C)\Pr(+|D^C)}&\text{add the 2 left entries}\\H_0 &\color{red}{\Pr(D)\Pr(-|D)}&\color{green}{\Pr(D^C)\Pr(-|D^C)}&\text{add the 2 left entries}\\ \hline- \text{Total}&\text{add the 2 above entries}&\text{add the 2 above entries}&\text{single digit integer}
- \end{array}$
