Three cars are involved in a rally. The probabilities that the cars will finish the race are 3/4, 5/7 and 2/3. What is the probability that all the cars will finish it?

if each event is independent, then P(all cars finishing) = P(car1 finishes)*P(car 2 finishes)*P(car 3 finishes)

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

basically you multiply all the probabilities and reduce
