Question

The probability of event A is 0.56. and the probability of event B is 0.34. If A and B are independent events, then P(A and B) =

0.1904
0.289
0.8096
0.90

Answer 1

The answer is 0.1904

Explanation:

The probability of event A is 0.56, and the probability of event B is 0.34. If A and B are independent events, then P(A and B) = 0.1904

.

Answer 2

First option : 0.1904

Explanation:

Given

`P(A) = 0.56\\P(B)= 0.34`

First of all, we will define independent events.

Two events are said to be independent if the occurrence of one event doesn't affect the probability of occurrence of second event.

If the events are independent then their individual probabilities are multiplied for the probability of both events.

That is:

P(A∩B) = P(A) * P(B)

= 0.56 * 0.34

=0.1904

So, the probability of A and B is 0.1904.

Hence, first option is the correct answer ..
