Q9 of 52 Page 1

A die marked 1,2,3 in red and 4,5,6 in green is tossed. Let A be the event that “number is even” and B be the event that “number is marked red”. Find whether the events A and B are independent or not.

Let A: number is even


B: number is marked red


For A and B to be independent events, P(A∩B)=P(A)P(B)






Since here P(A∩B) ≠P(A)P(B), therefore A and B are not independent events.
