Answer:
There is a 54% chance that the Jets will win the Stanley Cup.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since two hockey teams, the Winnipeg Jets and the Toronto Maple Leafs, miraculously make it to the Stanley Cup finals, where as soon as a team wins 3 games, the championship is over, and the schedule for the playoffs for home games is: Jets - Leafs - Jets - Leafs - Jets; since if the Jets are playing at home, there is a 60% chance they'll win, while if they are playing on the road, there is a 45% chance they'll win, to find the probability that the Jets win the Stanley Cup the following calculation must be performed:
(0.60 + 0.45 + 0.60 + 0.45 + 0.60) / 5 = X
2.70 / 5 = X
0.54 = X
Thus, there is a 54% chance that the Jets will win the Stanley Cup.
