A conditional probability can always be computed using the formula in the definition. Sometimes it can be computed by discarding part of the sample space. Two events A and B are independent if the probability P(A∩B) of their intersection A ∩ B is equal to the product P(A)⋅P(B) of their individual probabilities.
