Mutually exclusive events are events that cannot occur at the same time. we commonally call these events disjoint events also. AS per the definition given in the class 11 math probability chapter;
Two events A and B are said to be mutually exclusive if: P (A? B)=0
For Example:
When rolling a single die:Let event A = getting 2 on top
Let event B = getting 3 on top
Since the number on the top cannot be 2 and 3 at the same time, So A and B are mutually exclusive events.
