Question

A and B are independent events. P(A)=0.60 and P(B)=0.30 what is P(A and B)

Answer 1

Answer:

0.18

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a very simple problem that can be solved with a simple formula.

When there are two independent events A and B, the formula is:

P(A and B) = P(A) * P(B)

So we just need to multiply P(A) and P(B) to get P(A and B).

Thus,

P(A and B) = P(A) * P(B) = 0.60 * 0.30 = 0.18

Answer 2

Answer:

P (A and B) = 0.18

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that A and B are independent events which means that occurrence of one event does not have any impact on the other event.

Given that P(A)=0.60 and P(B)=0.30, we are to find the probability P(A and B).

To find this, we just simply need to multiply the probabilities of the two events.

P (A and B) = 0.60 × 0.30 = 0.18
