    Calculating Probability of Subsea Compressor System Failure

    My attempts to solve the problem It is F = AUBU(CUD) I had derived the below using the associative law. But after plugging in the values of A,B,C and D , my answer were still different from the given answer. P(A) +P(B) +P(CUD)-P[A]P[B]-P[A]P[CUD]-P[B]P[CUD]+P[A]P[B]P[CUD]
