Independent Conditional Prob.

MrGenetic · March 17th, 2018, 01:55 PM

I want to know that what is the difference between conditional prob. and independent conditional prob.

I confused with that dependent events' formula creates conditional prob's formula; but we use this formula with independent events. I missed some points i think.

Flip two coins, A and B.

What is the chance of both coming up heads?
Given A came up heads, what is the chance of both coming up heads?

The phrase independent conditional probability seems to imply a situation where there are two (or more) conditional probabilities (example#2) that have no bearing on each other.
