The probability of two independent events happening is the product of their individual probabilities. Therefore, the probability of James winning tomorrow and then winning the day after tomorrow is:
P(win tomorrow) × P(win the day after tomorrow) = (1/8) × (1/10) = 1/80
So, the answer is A. 1/80.
P(win tomorrow) × P(win the day after tomorrow) = (1/8) × (1/10) = 1/80
So, the answer is A. 1/80.
