Two non-simultaneous events have an equal likelihood of occurring (50%). If the events are independent of each other, what is the probability that they will both occur?
It is given in the quesiton that two non-simultaneous events have an equal likelihood of occurring (50%). But, If the events are independent of each other,then the probability that they will both occur together will be given by multiplicative rule of probabilties i.e P(one event) P (second event) = 50% 50% =25% i.e. there is 25% chance that they both will occur together
If the events that are non-simultaneous and have an equal likelihood of occurring, are independent, the probability that both will occur is 25%.
This can be found by the formula:
= Probability of first event x Probability of second event
Solving gives:
= 50% x 50%
= 25%
In conclusion, the probability will be 25%.
