The probability of an event ‘A’ happening on Monday is 40% and probability of event ‘B’ happening on Monday is 35%, what is the probability that either event A or event B is happening on Monday?

The probability of an event ‘A’ happening on Monday is 40% and probability of event ‘B’ happening on Monday is 35%, what is the probability that either event A or event B is happening on Monday? Correct Answer 0.14

Given:

P (N) = 40%

P (S) = 35%

Formula used:

P (E) = P (A) × P (B)

Calculation:

Either Event A is happening or event B

⇒ P (E) = 0.4 × 0.35

⇒ P (E) = 0.14

∴ probability of event is 0.14

The following are the two statements relating to the theory of probability. Indicate the statements being correct or incorrect.
Statement I The probability of the joint occurrence of independent events A and B is equal to the probability of event A multiplied by the probability of event B or vice-versa.
Statement II The probability of the joint occurrence of independent event A and dependent event B is equal to the probability of event A multiplied by the conditionalprobability of event B when event A has occurredor vice-versa.
Some people went to a water park on 2 days i.e. Sunday and Monday. The ratio of men, women and children who went on Sunday is 8 ∶ 7 ∶ 5 and that on Monday is 2 ∶ 2 ∶ 1, if the difference of men who went to the park on Sunday and number of women who went to park on Monday is 1200 and the difference between children who went on Sunday to the children who went on Monday is 850. Calculate the number of people who went to the park on Sunday is how much percentage greater than or less than the number of people who went to the park on Monday.
