Question 360860: Please help me with this problem ASAP!
10) What is the probability that a CSN political science student completes a 4-year degree and then attends law school, and then passes the Bar exam on the first try? There is a 50% chance that a CSN Political Science student will finish a 4-year degree, and 5% chance that once the 4-year degree is completed the student will attend law school, and a 20% of passing the Bar exam on the first attempt after going through all of that.
I have worked it multiple times and keep getting it wrong. I have submitted:
P(4yr)= 50%
P(lawschool)= 5%
P(bar)= 20%
50%-5%-20%= 25%
(.5)(.05)(.2)= .005= 0.5%

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
.5 * .05 * .2 = .005 = 0.5% Correct
