Answer: Probability that they will both occur is 25%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

There are two non simultaneous events.

Probability of each event = 50%

Since both are independent to each other.

Let A and B be two events.

We need to find the probability that they will both occur i..e P(A∩B).

As we know the rule of independence of events:

$P(A\cap B)=P(A).P(B)\\\\P(A\cap B)=0.5\times 0.5\\\\P(A\cap B)=0.25\\\\P(A\cap B)=25\%\\$

Hence, Probability that they will both occur is 25%.
