Independent events do not influence each other’s outcomes—like flipping a coin and rolling a die simultaneously. For two independent events A and B, the probability that both occur is P(A) × P(B). If P(A) = 1/2 (coin landing heads) and P(B) = 1/6 (die showing 3), then the combined probability is (1/2) × (1/6) = 1/12. Mastering independent event calculations is essential for interpreting multi-step experiments, analyzing random processes, or modeling real-world phenomena where outcomes remain unaffected by previous events.
