Answer:

14.72% probability that both professors get their grants funded

Step-by-step explanation:

Independent events:

If two events, A and B are independent, the probability of both happening is:

P(A \cap B) = P(A)*P(B)

In this question:

Event A: Professor Jane is funded

Event B: Professor Joe is funded.

Professor Jane has a probability of 0.64 of being funded.

This means that P(A) = 0.64

Professor Joe has probability 0.23 of being funded.

This means that P(B) = 0.23

What is the probability that both professors get their grants funded

P(A \cap B) = P(A)*P(B) = 0.64*0.23 = 0.1472

14.72% probability that both professors get their grants funded
