MCQS PROBABLITY, Events, Laws of Probability

This document contains 15 multiple choice questions related to probability, events, conditional probability, and Bayes' theorem. The questions cover topics such as: defining probability and the properties it must have; identifying independent vs. dependent events; applying rules of probability like addition and multiplication; representing events and sample spaces using Venn diagrams; and calculating probabilities of events occurring.
