geometry help? (independent events)

OpenStudy (palindromeman):

whats the question

OpenStudy (alienboy):

The probability of event A is 0.56, and the probability of event B is 0.34. If A and B are independent events, then P(A and B) = ____ my choices are: 0.1904 0.289 0.8096 0.90

OpenStudy (palindromeman):

Well you know that because A and B are both independent of each other, they have no influence on each other

OpenStudy (palindromeman):

So you have to simply multiply .56 by .34

OpenStudy (alienboy):

\ohh, thank you!! i'm sorry if this question seemed silly, the tutorial i had on independent events hardly helped, but thank you!

OpenStudy (palindromeman):

No problem
