After seeing B, the probability of A moves from 1% to 9.17%. In natural frequencies: of 10,000 cases, about 90 have A and show B, while 891 show B without A — so only 90 of the 981 who show B actually have A.
Tentang Probability calculator (events & Bayes' theorem)
For two events A and B, the addition rule gives P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) − P(A and B), the multiplication rule gives P(A and B) = P(A) × P(B | A), and conditional probability is P(A | B) = P(A and B) / P(B). Bayes' theorem mode runs the conditional the other way: from a prior P(A) and the two evidence rates P(B | A) and P(B | not A), it returns the updated probability P(A | B).
The Bayes default is a screening test for a condition with 1% prevalence, 90% sensitivity and a 9% false-positive rate. A positive result raises the probability from 1% to 9.17%, because in 10,000 people the 90 true positives are outnumbered by 891 false positives.
Enter probabilities from 0 to 1; fractions such as 1/6 are accepted. Two-events mode rejects combinations that cannot exist, such as a P(A and B) larger than P(A) or P(B).

Pertanyaan
How do you calculate the probability of A or B?
Add the two probabilities and subtract the overlap: P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) − P(A and B). For independent events with P(A) = 0.5 and P(B) = 0.4, the overlap is 0.5 × 0.4 = 0.2, so P(A or B) = 0.7. For mutually exclusive events the overlap is 0, so the probabilities simply add: 0.3 + 0.45 = 0.75.
What is the difference between independent and mutually exclusive events?
Independent events don't affect each other's chances, so P(A and B) = P(A) × P(B). Mutually exclusive events can't happen together, so P(A and B) = 0. Two events with non-zero probabilities can't be both: if A rules out B, knowing A happened changes the chance of B to 0. Two coin flips are independent; heads and tails on one flip are mutually exclusive.
Why does a positive result on an accurate test often mean you probably don't have the condition?
Because false positives from the large healthy group can outnumber true positives from the small affected group. With 1% prevalence, 90% sensitivity and 9% false positives, only 9.17% of positives are true. At 10% prevalence the same test gives 0.09 / (0.09 + 0.081) = 52.6%. This probability is the test's positive predictive value, and it depends on prevalence as much as on accuracy.
How do you calculate the probability of at least one event happening?
Subtract the chance that it never happens from 1: P(at least one) = 1 − (1 − p)ⁿ for n independent tries with probability p each. The chance of at least one six in 4 rolls of a die is 1 − (5/6)⁴ = 671/1296, about 0.5177, just above even odds. With p = 0.01 you need 69 tries before the chance passes 50%.
