A machine needs 2 of its gears replaced. You find 2 gears, one manufactured 5 years ago and the other manufactured 10 years ago.

The specifications sheet says that the chance of failure is 5% after 5 years and increases to 8% after 10 years. If the gears on the machine are in no way linked to each other, what are the chances that both will fail? Answer in % form.
If someone could show me the steps I would really appreciate it! Thanks!!!

Probability that gear 1 will fail = 5/100 (upto 10 years) 
and 8/100 (after 10 years)

Probability that both will fail = 5/100 * 8/100
= 40/10000
= 0.4 %

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1). ∵ 1 L = 1000 ml

   ∴ 4 L = 4000 ml

2). ∵ 1 cm = 10 mm

    ∴ 5 cm = 50 mm

3). ∵ 1 mg = 0.1 cg

    ∴ 5 mg = 0.5 cg

4). ∵ 1 ml = 0.001 L

    ∴ 25 ml = 0.025 L

5). ∵ 1 gm = 1000 mg

    ∴ 0.125 gm = 25 mg

6). ∵ 1 ml = 0.001 L

    ∴ 570 ml = 0.57 L

7). ∵ 1 mm = 0.1 cm

    ∴ 135 mm = 13.5 cm

8). ∵ 1 mg = 0.001 g

    ∴ 1820 mg = 1.82 g

9). ∵ 1 g = 100 cg

    ∴ 0.5 g = 50 cg

10). ∵ 1 ml = 0.001 L

     ∴ 0.2385 ml = 0.0002385 L
