problem

Select numbers aa and bb between 0 and 1 independently and at random, and let cc be their sum. Let AA, BB, and CC be the results when aa, bb, and cc, respectively, are rounded to the nearest integer. What is the probability that A+B=CA+B=C?
Plain-text mathematical notation (without MathML)
Select numbers a and b between 0 and 1 independently and at random, and let c be their sum. Let A, B, and C be the results when a, b, and c, respectively, are rounded to the nearest integer.  What is the probability that A+B=C?
