Using the given events A and B, what is the probability of each event happening?

A. P(A) = 1/24, P(B) = 1/6
B. P(A) = 1/6, P(B) = 1/24
C. P(A) = 1/12, P(B) = 1/6
D. P(A) = 1/6, P(B) = 1/12

Final answer:

The probability of two independent events A and B happening is equal to the product of their individual probabilities.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of two independent events A and B happening is equal to the product of their individual probabilities, P(A) and P(B). In this case, the given probabilities are P(A) = 1/6 and P(B) = 1/12. Therefore, the correct answer is option D. P(A) = 1/6, P(B) = 1/12.
