Then P(A∩B)=P(A|B)P(B) becomes P(A∩B)=P(A)(B) because the \(P(A...This equation is read as the probability of A given B equals the probability of A and B divided by the probability of B. Then P(A∩B)=P(A|B)P(B) becomes P(A∩B)=P(A)(B) because the P(A|B)=P(A) if A and B are independent. We can think of the union symbol substituting for the word "or". The reason we subtract the intersection of A and B is to keep from double counting elements that are in both A and B.
