Question

Events A and B are independent. Find the missing probability.

P(a)=3/10,p(b)=13/20,p(a and b)=?

Answer 1

`P(A and B) = (39)/(200)`

Step-by-step explanation

If A and B are independent events, then,

P(A and B)=P(A)×P(B)

It was given that:

`P(A) = (3)/(10)`

and

`P(B) = (13)/(20)`

`P(A \: and \: B) = (3)/(10) * (13)/(20)`

`P(A and B) = (39)/(200)`
