P (A and B) = P(A) * P(B)...answer is D

Answer:

The formula that is used to calculate the probability of independent events A and B are:

                        D. P(A and B)=P(A)·P(B)

Step-by-step explanation:

Independent events--

Two events A and B are said to be independent if the happening of one event do not affect the happening of the other event.

For example-- The probability of getting two heads on rolling a die two times.

Hence, the formula that calculate the probability of independent events A and B is given by:

        \(P(A\bigcap B)=P(A)\cdot P(B)\)
