In probability theory, the multiplication rule states that:

multiplication rule

There is a 0.01 (1%) probability that a seal will fail if the joint is not coated with a sealing compound before assembly. The proportion of joints that are not coated is 0.05 (5%).

What is the probability that a seal will fail.

P(A|B) Probability that the seal will fail if not coated 0.01
P(B) Probability the seal will not be coated 0.05
multiplication 0.01 x 0.05 =0.0005
