How to use this calculator


Step 1:

For independent events A and B, enter the probability of event A and probability of event B below to find the probability of A and B occurring together.

The probability calculator finds the probability of two independent events A and B occurring together.

Two events are independent events if the occurrence of one event does not affect the probability of the other event. If A and B are independent events, then the probability of A and B occurring together is given by

P(A∩B)=P(B∩A)=P(A).P(B)

This rule is called as multiplication rule for independent events.

Step 2:

Click the arrow to submit. Choose "Find P(A∩B) for Independent Events A and B" from the topic selector and click to see the result in our Statistics Calculator!
