Andy is getting his office painted. Andy gets to choose the paint color, but his boss has to approve it. The probability of Andy choosing red is 32%. The probability that his boss approves Andy's choice is 20%. What is the probability that Andy chooses red and his boss approves?

OpenStudy (perl):

you can multiply probabilities

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So would it be 6.4%

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thats what I got.

OpenStudy (displayerror):

"AND" suggests multiplication, so P(Andy chooses red) * P(Boss approves)

OpenStudy (displayerror):

Yeah, 6.4%
