Rudiy27

A door alarm works in 72 out of 100 cases.

surveillance camera works in 68 out of 100 cases.

The probability that method A is used = 72/100

The probability that method B is used = 68/100

Since both method are used we find the probability of A and B

Probability ( A and B) = \frac{72}{100} * \frac{68}{100}

= \frac{306}{625}
