  1. A \(\frac{54}{125}\)
  2. B \(\frac{81}{125}\)
  3. C \(\frac{18}{25}\)
  4. D \(\frac{9}{25}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\frac{81}{125}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(P(\text{A wins}) = 0.6\) \(P(\text{A does not win}) = 1 - 0.6 = 0.4\) \(P(\text{A wins at least 2 games}) = P(\text{A wins 3 games}) + P(\text{A wins 2 games})\) \(P(\text{A wins 3 games}) = (0.6)^3 = 0.216\)…
