- Given, There are three ways of forecasting the result of any one football match, one correct and other two incorrect.
so,probability of incorrect result =2/3
therefore, probability of forecasting at least 3 correct result for 4 matches = probability of 3 correct and 1 correct or probability of all 4 correct
= 4*(1/3)^3 * (2/3) + (1/3)^4
=(1/3)^4 (8+1)
=9/3^4
=1/9 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
