(A) Given that $A$ and $B$ are independent events. We know that $P(A) = 1 - P(A^{\prime})$ and $P(B) = 1 - P(B^{\prime})$. Given $P(A^{\prime}) = \frac{2}{3}$,so $P(A) = 1 - \frac{2}{3} = \frac{1}{3}$. Given $P(B^{\prime}) = \frac{2}{7}$,so $P(B) = 1 - \frac{2}{7} = \frac{5}{7}$. Since $A$ and $B$ are independent,$P(A \cap B) = P(A) \cdot P(B)$. Therefore,$P(A \cap B) = \frac{1}{3} \cdot \frac{5}{7} = \frac{5}{21}$.
