Question

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%

I tried 20 and it's not the answer

Answer 1

Answer:

16%

Step-by-step explanation:

80%=0.8

20%=0.2

0.8*0.2=0.16=16%

Answer 2

First turns those into fractions, now you should have 4/5 and 1/5.
Now to generate a chance the 2 events will happen in a row (Like rain and a postponed game) you need to multiply the 2 fractions together so it should come out with 4/25 or 16%
