Two events are disjoint if they cannot happen at the same time.
Scenario: Considering the following two events, determine if they're disjoint.
- Event A: Roll a number greater than 4
- Event B: Roll a number less than 2
SA ∩ B = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
Zero out of the six potential outcomes overlap in both Event A and B!
P(A ∩ B) = 0 / 6
P(A ∩ B) = 0
If there's no overlap of two events occurring in potential outcomes, then they're disjoint!
