Two events are called to be independent events if the occurrence or non-occurrence of one event does not affect the probability of the other event.<\/p>\n
If A and B are independent events, the probability of both events A and B occurring is the product of their individual probabilities:<\/p>\n
P(A and B) = P(A) * P(B)<\/p>\n
With this, we can simplify tree diagrams when dealing with problems with multiple same items by simply marking their probabilities.<\/p>\n
When two (or more) events are dependent to each other, we cannot use the product rule, but we can still use the tree diagrams to help us finding probabilities.<\/p>\n
