Question

Given that there is a 23% chance it will rain on any day, what is the probability that it will rain on the first day and be clear (not rain) on the next two days?

Answer 1

P(rain on a day) = 0.23

P(not rain on a day) = 1 - 0.23 = 0.77

Probability = 0.23 * (1 - 0.23) * (1 - 0.23)

= 0.23 * 0.77 * 0.77 = 0.136367
