anonymous one year ago There is an 80% chance of rain tomorrow and a 20% chance the football game will be postponed. What is the probability that it will rain tomorrow and the football game will be postponed 4% 16% 20% 60%

60%

2. anonymous

im pretty positive not 100%

3. anonymous

60%

4. anonymous

It cannot be 60% when one of the probability is lower than 60% itself

5. anonymous

BC. 60% is closer to 100

6. anonymous

And they want to know the probability of BOTH occurring.

7. anonymous

is it 20%

8. anonymous

i read it wrong. dont listen to me XD

Since 80% is 4/5 and 20% is 1/5 $\frac{ 4 }{ 5 }*\frac{ 1 }{ 5 }=\frac{ 4 }{ }$

12. anonymous

oh wow that denominator is bugged again. supposed to be 4/25

13. anonymous

16

14. anonymous

or just multiply the percentage 80%=0.80 20%=0.20 (0.80)(0.20)

15. anonymous

yea 16% (0.16) would equal 16%
