Dependant probability is when the likelihood of one thing is affected by whether or not something else happened.

For instance, when I go shopping, there's a 90% chance I'll go to the local shop, and there's a 10% chance I'll go to the bakers.

If I go to the shop, there's 50% chance I'll buy a loaf of bread. If I go to the bakers, there's an 80% chance I'll buy a loaf of bread.

The dependent probability is the chance I'll buy a loaf of bread. It depends on which shop I go to.
