Find PB Give your answer correct to two decimal places A and

Find P(B). (Give your answer correct to two decimal places.)

A and B are independent events,
P(A) = 0.48 and P(A and B) = 0.26

Solution

As they are independent,

P(A) P(B) = P(A and B)

Thus,

0.48*P(B) = 0.26

P(B) = 0.26/0.48 = 0.541666667 = 0.54 [ANSWER]
