Oh also you need 2 that rely on each other here is a example but dont use it it doesnt apply to your life: If here are 2 red marbles and 4 blue marbles in a bag what are the chances of pulling a red then a blue? See the first needs to happen for the second to happen

anonymous · Answer

it would be 2/6 right?

anonymous · Answer

No you need to multiply them if its dependent on eachother if its independent you need to multiply. So the example would be 8/36 or 2/9 if simplified
