Could anyone please help me with this probability question? I've been absent for 3 days, so I'm not sure if I'm doing it right or not.

What is the probability that men and women will wash their hands four times per day?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Count how men there are in total and how many men wash their hands 4 times per day. The probability is the number of people who wash their hands 4 times divided by the total number of people

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do the same for women.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do I multiply the two number together?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I know how to find the probability individually, but it says "and", does that require multiplication or addition?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

AND is multiplication :)
