Exercises: Apply the General Multiplication Rule
Work through each section in order. Use the general Multiplication Rule, $P(A \text{ and } B) = P(A) \cdot P(B \mid A)$, for joint probabilities. For draws WITHOUT replacement, remember that BOTH the favorable count and the total shrink after the first draw. On a tree diagram, MULTIPLY along a path and ADD across paths. Leave fractions exact unless told otherwise.
