Probability Calculator (Single, Union & Joint Events)
Calculate event probabilities, unions $P(A \cup B)$, intersections $P(A \cap B)$, and conditional rules.
TL;DR: Probability Calculator computes the probability of single and multiple events, calculating intersections $P(A \text{ and } B)$, unions $P(A \text{ or } B)$, and complements.
Assumes A and B are independent events (one doesn't affect the other).
How Do You Calculate the Probability of Two Events Occurring Together?
For two independent events A and B, the probability of both occurring is: P(A and B) = P(A) × P(B). The probability of either event occurring is: P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B).
How to Use the Probability Calculator
Our Probability Calculator performs high-precision mathematical operations directly in your browser with zero latency and complete client-side privacy.

- Enter probability values as decimals (0 to 1), percentages (0% to 100%), or ratios (1 in X).
- Specify whether events are Independent, Dependent, or Mutually Exclusive.
- Click 'Calculate Probability' to view union, intersection, and complement results.
- Review odds ratios and visual Venn diagram representations.
Mathematical Formula & Equations
Computes single event, independent compound event, mutually exclusive, and conditional Bayes probabilities.
Calculation Example
Probability of rolling a sum of 7 with two six-sided dice: 6 favorable outcomes out of 36 total possibilities $P = \frac{6}{36} = \frac{1}{6} \approx 16.67\%$.

Frequently Asked Questions
- The probability of an event is `P(E) = Number of Favorable Outcomes / Total Possible Outcomes`. Probabilities always range between 0 (impossible) and 1 (certain).
- Mutually exclusive events cannot happen at the same time (`P(A and B) = 0`). Independent events can happen together, and the occurrence of one does not affect the probability of the other.
- The complement of event A is the event that A does not happen: `P(not A) = 1 - P(A)`.
- Conditional probability is the probability of event A occurring given that B has already occurred: `P(A|B) = P(A and B) / P(B)`.
- Odds in favor of an event are calculated as `Odds = P(A) / [1 - P(A)]`. For example, a 25% probability equals odds of `0.25 / 0.75 = 1 to 3`.
- Multiply the individual probabilities together: `P(A and B) = P(A) × P(B)`. For example, rolling two sixes on dice is `(1/6) × (1/6) = 1/36`.
