How do you calculate the probability of two independent events occurring?

Back

To calculate the probability of two independent events occurring, multiply their individual probabilities. For example, P(A and B) = P(A) * P(B).

What is the sample space in probability?

Back

The sample space is the set of all possible outcomes of a probability experiment. For example, when tossing two coins, the sample space is {HH, HT, TH, TT}.
