Now simplify the equation by adding 1/2+1/2= 2/4 => 1/2.

Two attempts was just to confuse the question
Brother with no offence, if you add 1/2+1/2=2/2 which is equal to 1. if in the question or was written instead of "and" than we could use addition formula but because of word and we have to multiply both the probabilities.
