Answer:
It is 14.45 percent
.
Step-by-step explanation:
Explanation:
The first day is independent from the day before. Therefore the first day probability (of rain) is 20 percent.
The second day (depends on the previous day) rainfall probability is 85 percent.
Finally, the third day (it must be rainy to satisfy the total probability) rainfall probability is 85 percent.
The probability of having three consecutive days which are rainy:
P(all rainy)
