Knowledge about conditional probability and event occurring.
Use of the theorem to find probability.
What is Multiplication Theorem?
| Key Words | Definitions (pref. in our own words) |
|---|---|
| Conditional Probability | Probability of the event E is called the conditional probability of E given that F has already occurred, and is denoted by P (E|F). |
| Multiplication theorem | The occurrence of E & F both events are P(E ? F) = P(E) P(F|E) |
| Gadgets | How it can be used |
|---|
Solving problems of dependent and independent events.
| Examples | Explainations |
|---|---|
| Drawing two cards if one is already drawn | Probability of getting two kings if first card was an ace can be found out by using multiplication theorem. |
Statement of the multiplication theorem.
Finding occurrence of more than one event occurred at same time.
