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 events A and B are independent, the probability of both events occurring at the same time is

P(A and B) = P(A) x P(B) = 0.3 x 0.25 = 0.075

Therefore, the probability of events A and B happening at the same time is 0.075.
