Probabilities are used to determine the chances of an event

The probability of event B is 0.62

The probabilities are given as:

[tex]\mathbf{P(A) = 0.48}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{P(A\ and\ B) = 0.21}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{P(A\ or\ B) = 0.89}[/tex]

To calculate the probability of event B, we make use of the following formula

[tex]\mathbf{P(A\ and\ B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A\ or\ B)}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{0.21 = 0.48 + P(B) - 0.89}[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]\mathbf{P(B)= -0.48 +0.21 + 0.89}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{P(B)= 0.62}[/tex]

Hence, the probability of event B is 0.62
