If events A and B are independent and given that P (A) = 0.6 and P (An B) = 0.12, then P (B) is equal to:

Answer 1

To find P(B), we can use the formula for conditional probability:

P(B|A) = P(A and B) / P(A)

Since events A and B are independent, P(B|A) = P(B). Therefore:

P(B) = P(A and B) / P(A)

Given that P(A) = 0.6 and P(A and B) = 0.12:

P(B) = 0.12 / 0.6 = 0.2
