The probability of a student passing any exam is 2/3. If the student takes three exams, what is the probability that he will not pass any of them?

A.

2/3

B.

4/9

C.

8/27

D.

1/27

Correct Answer: 1/27

Explanation

P(not passing exam) = 1−2/3 = 1/3 P(not passing any of the three exams) = 1/3 × 1/3 × 1/3 = 1/27

P(not passing exam) = 1−2/3 = 1/3 P(not passing any of the three exams) = 1/3 × 1/3 × 1/3 = 1/27
