By Kolmogorov definition of conditional probability, we find the answer through the equation,
                       P(AIB) = P(A∩B)/ P(B)
where event A is a student owning a tablet and event B is a student owning a laptop. Substituting the known values,
                       P(AIB) = 0.29/ 0.67 = 0.43
Thus, the probability of a student owning a tablet given that he also owns a laptop is approximately 43%.
