Or - Event A or event B
CONCEPTS
Equation
• Probability 1 Event Occurs =
Number of desired events / Total number of possible events +
Number of desired events / Total number of possible events +
Number of desired events / Total number of possible events
Tips
• Always look for the word "or“, or the phrase "what is the probability of x happening“.
• If there is a common event between the 2 desired events, then the probability of that event occurring needs to be subtracted from the total probability.
