Daan and Marieke plan to take a cruise together. But they live in different cities in the US. The cruise leaves from New York. They need to fly to New York and arrive at the ship on time. According to their itinerary, the chance that Daan’s flight will be on time is 70%, and for Marieke’s flight the probability is 85%. We assume that the events are independent of each other. What is then the probability that both will arrive on time?
