If an event A can occur in m ways and for each of these m ways,
an event B can occur in n ways, then events A and B can occur in
m n ways. This principle can be generalized to more than two
events that happen in succession. So, if for each of the m and n
ways A and B can occur respectively, there is also an event C
that can occur in s ways, then events A, B, and C can occur in
m n s ways.

A jar contains 12 quarters and 4
dimes. What is P(quarter, then
dime) if you select the first coin and
replace it before you draw the
second coin?
10 pt. Answer from
Wild Card
P(quarter then dime) =
3
16
P(quarter) = 12/16 = ¾. Since you replace
the first coin the P(dime) = 4/16 because
there are still 16 coins in the jar. The
P(quarter then dime) = ¾ x 4/16 = 12/64
= 3/16.

If A and B are independent events
such that P(A) = 0.50 and P(B) =
0.25. What is the probability that A
and B will occur?
15 pt. Answer from
Wild Card
0.125
P(A) = 0.50 and P(B) = 0.25 so the
P(A and B) = 0.50 x 0.25 = 0.125

If A and B are independent events
such that P(A) = 0.50 and P(B) =
0.25. What is the probability that A
or B will occur?
20 pt. Answer from
Wild Card
0.75
P(A) = 0.50 and P(B) = 0.25 so the
P(A or B) = 0.50 + 0.25 = 0.75

or a face card?
25 pt. Answer from

13
P(Ace) = 4/52 and P(face card) =
12/52, so the P(Ace or Face Card) =
4/52 + 12/52 = 16/52 = 4/13
