How is Conditional Probability calculated?

Back

P(A|B) = P(A and B) / P(B), where P(A|B) is the probability of A given B.

What is the difference between independent and dependent events?

Back

Independent events do not affect each other's probabilities, while dependent events do.

If P(A) = 0.5 and P(B) = 0.4, what is P(A and B) if A and B are independent?

Back

P(A and B) = 0.5 * 0.4 = 0.2.

If P(A) = 0.3, what is P(A')?

Back

P(A') = 1 - P(A) = 1 - 0.3 = 0.7.

How do you interpret P(A|B) in a real-world context?

Back

It represents the likelihood of event A happening under the condition that event B is true.
