Question -

If E and F are events such that P(E) = ¼ , P(F) = ½ and P(E and F) = 1/8 , find
(i) P(E or F), (ii) P(not E and not F)



Answer -

From the question, we have P(E) = ¼ , P(F) = ½ and P(E ∩ F)= 1/8

(i) P(E or F) i.e. P(EF)= P(E) + P(F) – P(E ∩ F)

= ¼ + ½ – (1/8)

= 5/8

= 1 – (5/8)

= (8 – 5)/8

= 3/8
