It is given that $\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A})=0.3, \,\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{B})=0.6$

Also, $A$ and $B$ are independent events.

$\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A}$ and not $\mathrm{B})=\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A} \cap \mathrm{B})^{\prime}$

$=\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A})-\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A} \cap \mathrm{B})$

$=0.3-0.18$

$=0.12$
