Program P fails when either P1 fails or P2 fails, i.e. failure of P1 + failure of P2. But this will also contain the case when both P1 and P2 fails at the same time, i.e. failure of P1 ∩ failure of P2, since this case will be already be counted on (P1+P2). Therefore, our final answer will be failure of P1 + failure of P2 - (failure of P1 ∩ failure of P2) = (50/100) + (40/100) -(50/100∗40/100) = (90/100) - (2000/10000) = (90/100) - (20/100) = (70/100) |
