Answer:

<h2> The overall reliability of the system is 88%</h2>

Explanation:

When solving for the reliability of a complex machine, that is a machine that has more than one component, the reliability of the machine is the products of all individual components.

Given the

reliabilities of 98%,

96%, and

94%

Converting to decimals we have

98/100= 0.98

96/100= 0.96

94/100= 0.94

The product of all reliability is

0.98* 0.96 0.94= 0.88

now converting back to percent we have

0.88*100= 88%
