If 2 events r independent, da probability of both events occuring is da product of their individual probability. Event A an B r independent with P (A) = 0.3 n P (B) = 0.25 wut is da probability of events A and B happening @ da same time? Write ur answer in decimal form

1 answer

To find the probability of two independent events A and B occurring at the same time, you multiply their individual probabilities:

\[ P(A \text{ and } B) = P(A) \times P(B) \]

Given:

  • \( P(A) = 0.3 \)
  • \( P(B) = 0.25 \)

Now, calculate:

\[ P(A \text{ and } B) = 0.3 \times 0.25 = 0.075 \]

So, the probability of both events A and B happening at the same time is \( \boxed{0.075} \).
