The probability of event X or Y is P = 0.7, or, in percentage form, the probability is 70%.

<h3>How the get the probability of event X or Y?</h3>

First, two events are mutually exclusive if these events can't happen at the same time.

This means that if happens X, with a 30% of probability, then Y can't happen.

If happens Y, with a 40% of probability, then X can't happen.

Then the probability of X or Y (the probability that one of these two events happens, not both) is just the addition of the two individual probabilities.

Then we have:

P(X or Y) = 0.3 + 0.4 = 0.7

Or, in percent form, we get:

P(X or Y) = 70%

The probability of event X or Y is just 70%.
