A random number generator selects three numbers independently, each from 1 through 10.
Find the probability of the event.
All three numbers are less than or equal to 4.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The probability to get EACH such a number separately is 4 of 10, i.e.  4%2F10 = 0.4.


Hence, the probability to get ALL 3 (three) numbers less or equal to 4 is


    P = 0.4%5E3 = 0.064.      ANSWER
