What is the probability that a particular eligible person in this city is selected two years in a row? three years in a row?

Answer 1

Answer:

Two years in a row: 2.25%

Three years in a row: 0.3375%

Step-by-step explanation:

For two years in a row:  

15/100*15/100

225/10000=

0.0225

0.0225*100 (for percentage)= 2.25%

For three years in a row:  

15/100*15/100*15/100

3375/1000000=

0.003375

0.003375*100 (for percentage)=0.3375%
