Aand b are independent events. p(a) = 0.40 p(b) = 0.30 what is p(a/b)

Hello mate!

Two independent events, mean that the fact that, if the event A occurred, this has no effect in the probability of the event B to occur after.

For example, a coin flip.

The first result has no effect on the next result.

Then the notation P(A/B)  is the probability of the event A when the event B occurred before, but as we know, the fact that the event B occurred before has no effect in it; so:

P(A/B) = P(A) = 0.30

step-by-step explanation:

the multiplicative inverse of a fraction a/b is b/a. for the multiplicative inverse of a real number, divide 1 by the number. for example, the reciprocal of 5 is one fifth 1/5 or 0.2, and the reciprocal of 0.25 is 1 divided by 0.25, or 4.
