how to prove the proof for multlication rule for when event independent
Note that multiplication is represented by AND. Multiplication Rule 1: When two events, A and B, are independent, the probability of both occurring is: P(A and B) = P(A) Â· P(B). (Note: Another multiplication rule will be introduced in the next lesson.) Now we can apply this rule to find the probability for Experiment 1.wo events, A and B, are independent if the fact that A occurs does not affect the probability of B occurring. Some other examples of independent events are: 1  Landing on heads after tossing a coin AND rolling a 5 on a single 6-sided die. 2  Choosing a marble from a jar AND landing on heads after tossing a coin.
