<span>There is a 20% (or 20/100chance) it will rain on Thursday and there is a 40% (or 40/100) chance it will rain on Friday. In order to find out the probability of it raining both days, we need to multiply these two values. (40/100)(20/100)= 800/10,000= 0.08. We move the decimal over two places to get a percent, so we get an 8% chance it will rain on both Thursday and Friday.</span>
Each rug is 1/8 of the floor space. So, 4 rugs would cover half of the floor space. Multiply, then reduce.
4(1/8)=4/8 or 1/2
