The probability that it will rain on Wednesday and on Saturday will be 0.18 or 18 percent.
What is probability?
Probability means possibility. It deals with the occurrence of a random event. The value of probability can only be from 0 to 1. Its basic meaning is something is likely to happen. It is the ratio of the favorable event to the total number of events.
The weather report states that the probability it will rain on Wednesday is 30 percent and the probability that it will rain on Saturday is 60 percent.
Then the probability that it will rain on Wednesday and on Saturday will be
We know that the formula
[tex]P(A \cap B) = P(A)P(B)[/tex]
We have
P(A) = 0.30
P(B) = 0.60
Then the probability will be
[tex]\rm P(A \cap B) = 0.6 \times 0.3\\\\P(A \cap B) = 0.18 \ or \ 18\%[/tex]
