Let event G represent that a person visited the gift shop and event F represent that a person watched the film.
P(G) = 0.46
P(F) = 0.49
P(G') = 0.54
P(F') = 0.51
P(G and F') = 0.1
The probability that the person visited the gift shop, given that the person did not watch the film
= probability that the person visited the gift shop and did not watch the film divided by the probability that the person did not watch the film
= P(G and F') / P(F')
= 0.1 / 0.51 = 0.196 = 19.6%
