if he registers his first win in the fifth round, that means he lost in rounds 1 through 4.\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the probability that he wins a game is 3/4.
\n" ); document.write( "the probability that he loses a game is therefore 1 - 3/4 = 1/4\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the probability that he loses in the first four round and then wins in the fifth round is therefore:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "1/4 * 1/4 * 1/4 * 1/4 * 3/4.\r
