Total Probability Theorem – Definition and Examples

Here you will learn law of total probability theorem with examples. Let’s begin – Total Probability Theorem (Law of Total Probability) Let an event A of an experiment occurs with its n mutually exclusive and exhaustive events \(B_1,B_2,B_3….B_n\) then total probability of occurrence of event A is P(A) = \(P(AB_1)\) + \(P(AB_2)\) +……..+ \(P(AB_n)\) P(A) …

Dependent and Independent Events in Probability

Here, you will learn dependent and independent events in probability with examples. Let’s begin – Dependent and Independent Events Formula Two Events A and B are said to be independent if occurrence or non-occurrence of one does not affect the probability of the occurrence or non-occurrence of other. If the occurrence of one event affects …
