If events A and B are independent, P(A) = 0.62, and P(B | A) = 0.93, what is P(B)?

To find the probability of event B, given that events A and B are independent, you can use the formula:
P(B) = P(B | A) * P(A)
In this case, you are given P(A) = 0.62 and P(B | A) = 0.93. Plugging these values into the formula, you get:
P(B) = 0.93 * 0.62
Now, simply calculate the product of these two probabilities:
P(B) = 0.577
Therefore, the probability of event B is 0.577.
