Compound Probability of Independent Events

The probabilities of simple events can be combined, or compounded, to find the probability of two or more events happening. When outcomes of these events don't depend on each other, the events are considered independent. This lecture series presents examples of calculating compound probabilities of independent events using diagrams. Watch the videos and complete the interactive exercises.
