Probability = favorable cases/total cases

Importance , when we calculate problability for more than one events then we take union or
intersection

and during that we need probability for indivisual cases like

P(A È B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A Ç B)


here P(A) and P(B) is calculated using the fundamental theorem of favorable cases/ total cases

If Probability of Indivisual elements of sample space is given, then it means Events are not
equally likely.

P(A) =?

A={a,b,}

if it is not mentined that a,b are related then we assume it to be exclusive

P(A) = P(a) + P(b) -P(a Ç b)

P(a,b)=P(a È b)

Most Important

Calulation of P(A Ç B), only this part matters most and has many formulae for calculation but
P(A È B) ha only one formulae

P(A Ç B) = P(B)*P(A/B) = P(A)P(B/A)

P(A Ç B) = P(A)*P(B) as P(B/A) = P(B) for independent event
