Consider this a three step process, i.e., answering the first question with a C or an I, answering the second question with a C or an I, and answering the third with a C or an I.
Identify each sample space outcome suing the c and i designations. what is the probability that the student gets all three questions correct? what is the probability that the student gets exactly two questions correct? what is the probability that the student gets at least two questions correct?
