Given two independent events $A$ and $B$ such that $P(A) $ $=0.3, \,P(B)=0.6$ Find $P(A$ and $B)$.
Given two independent events $A$ and $B$ such that $P(A) $ $=0.3, \,P(B)=0.6$ Find $P(A$ and $B)$.
It is given that $P(A)=0.3,\,P(B)=0.6$..
Also, $A$ and $B$ are independent events.
$\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A}$ and $\mathrm{B})=\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A}) \cdot \mathrm{P}(\mathrm{B})$
$\Rightarrow $ $ \mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A} \cap \mathrm{B})=0.3 \times 0.6=0.18$
