∙ 14y agoIt depends on whether or not the events are independent.
P(A given B)*P(B)=P(A and B), where event A is dependent on event B. Finding the probability of an independent event really depends on the situation (dart throwing, coin flipping, even Schrodinger's cat...).

Two events are said to be independent if the outcome of one event does not affect the outcome of the other. Their probabilities are independent probabilities. If the events are not independent then they are dependent.
The two events are said to be independent.

Independent events.
They are independent, because the probability of the first event does not affect the probability of the second event.
That probability is the product of the probabilities of the two individual events; for example, if event A has a probability of 50% and event B has a probability of 10%, the probability that both events will happen is 50% x 10% = 5%.
P(A given B)*P(B)=P(A and B), where event A is dependent on event B. Finding the probability of an independent event really depends on the situation (dart throwing, coin flipping, even Schrodinger's cat...).

It is true.
True
The answer depends on whether or not the events are independent, whether or not the probabilities are the same for each event etc. Without that information, there cannot be an answer.

If it's an independent event then it's probability does not depend on preceding events. For example, if I flip a coin twice the probability that the coin will show 'heads' the second time is independent of what happened the first time; it's just 1/2.
