Question

A and B are independent events P(A)=.80 and P(B)=.10 what is P(A and B)?

Answer 1

0.08

Explanation:

When you see the word AND in statistics, this means multiple the probabilities together!

In other words, the expression is saying, "What is the probability that events A and B will BOTH OCCUR?"

P(A) = .80

P(B) = .10

P(A and B) = .80 × .10 = 0.08
