How is Bayes' theorem related to conditional probability?
- Bayes' theorem and conditional probability are not related
- Bayes' theorem cannot be used with conditional probability
- Bayes' theorem is a specific type of conditional probability
- Bayes' theorem is used to calculate the complement of the conditional probability
