Question

If the probability of event 1 is 80% and of event 2 is 70% and they are independent events, how likely is it that both events will occur?\

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

p(1)=80/100

P(2)=70/100

P(both events occur)= P(event 1 Union event 2)

Since they are independent events

=P(event 1)×P(event 2)

=8/10×7/10 =56/100

=0.56
