Question

If you eat at Silly Bob's Café there's a 40% chance that you willget the wrong order and a 30% chance your food will taste bad.Assume that these two events are independent.What is the probability that both occur, i.e., you will getthe wrong order and it will taste bad?P(wrong order AND tastes bad)Give your answer as a fraction. look

Answer 1

P(wrong order AND tastes bad) = (3/25)

Step-by-step explanation

Independent events are events that do not depend on each other to occur.

The probability of two independent events happening together is simply the multiplication of the probabilities of each event.

So, for this question.

Probability of getting the wrong order = 40% = 0.4

Probability of the food tasting bad = 30% = 0.3

Probability of getting the wrong order and the food tasting bad = 0.4 × 0.3 = 0.12 = (12/100) = (3/25)

Hope this Helps!!!
