About the Probability Calculator

Find the chance of two independent events happening together or separately. This tool is free, works in your browser and needs no sign-up.

How to use the Probability Calculator

Enter the probability of event A and event B as numbers from 0 to 1.

Formula used

Both = P(A) × P(B). Either = P(A) + P(B) − P(A) × P(B). Neither = (1 − P(A)) × (1 − P(B)).

Example

With P(A) from 0 to 1 0.5, P(B) from 0 to 1 0.3, the calculator shows: A and B both happen = 0.15; A or B (at least one) = 0.65; Neither happens = 0.35.
