Question

If two events are independent, the probability of both events occurring is the product of their individual probability. Events A and B are independent with P(A)=0.3
and P(B)=0.25
. What is the probability of events A and B happening at the same time? Write your answer in decimal form.

Answer 1

Since A and B are independent, P(A and B) = P(A)·P(B) = 0.3 × 0.25 = 0.075.
