Answer

Calculate the multiplication to get the answer.

Steps

Step 1 :The formula to find the probability of both independent events happening is given by \(P(A \cap B)=P(A) \times P(B)\)

Step 2 :Substitute the values into the formula, we get \(P(A \cap B)=0.3 \times 0.5\)

Step 3 :Calculate the multiplication to get the answer.
