Of In a certain city, 60% of the heads of household own the house in which they reside, and 80% of the heads of the
household have full-time employment. When considering what percentage of heads of household both own their
home and have a full-time job, a student estimates that 48% of heads of household fit both requirements, stating
that (0.60)(0.80) = 0.48. Is this student correct in his approach?

O No, because although two probabilities should be multiplied, it should not be these two probabilities. This is

individual probabilities. They should be added instead.
