问题 Consider an experiment with events A and B The probability of event A is 0.63, and the probability of event B is 0.58. What is the least possible probability when both event A and B happen? ________.

选项

答案0.21

解析 由P(A or B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A and B),可知P(A and B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A or B),想让其最小,则应该让P(A or B)最大,而在同一个概率实验下,A或B发生的最大值等于1,于是P(A and B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A or B)=0.63+0.58-1=0.21。大家容易想到A和B交集最小就是A和B互斥,但若A和B互斥,两个集合的对应的概率相加就会超过1,与实际不符。
