$$ \text{ Let }B \subseteq A\\ \text{ then }A = \{x \in B\cup A\backslash B\}\\ \implies A= \{x\in B \cup x\in A\cup\overline{B}\}\\ \implies P(A) = P(B)+P(A\cup\overline{B}) $$ |dw:1383179877641:dw|
*A\B should be A AND Not(B) $$ \text{ Let }B \subseteq A\\ \text{ then }A = \{x \in B\cup A\backslash B\}\\ \implies A= \{x\in B \cup x\in A\cap\overline{B}\}\\ \implies P(A) = P(B)+P(A\cap\overline{B}) $$
Note that this probability is possible because B and \(A\cap \overline{B}\) are mutually exclusive.
