| Jan 12, 2023 at 1:55 | comment | added | Henry | Those three examples are presumably independent events. They are not disjoint as there is a positive probability of all three happening of $\frac12\times \frac16\times \frac14=\frac1{48}$ if they are fair. See stats.stackexchange.com/questions/380789/… for somebody confused about independent | |

Getting a 2 on the die is the event "the die shows a 2 and the coin and card could be anything." These events are not disjoint: in common they have "the coin is heads, the die is 2, and the card could be anything," a set which is nonempty. | |
