Question

What is the probability of two independent events?

Answer 1

Independent events are events, which occur without depending on the occurrence of other events. Their occurrence does not affect the other events. Suppose, there are two independent events $\mathrm{A}$ and $\mathrm{B}$. Then, the probability of $\mathrm{A}$ and $\mathrm{B}$ together will be the product of their probabilities.

The probability will be given as:

$\mathrm{P}\left(\mathrm{A}\cap \mathrm{B}\right)=\mathrm{P}\left(\mathrm{A}\right)\times \mathrm{P}\left(\mathrm{B}\right)$
