The probability that it will snow over 2 weeks is 1/12 one week and 1/4 another week.
What is p snow this week then next week?
A. 1/8
B. 1/16
C. 1/24
D. 1/48
To find the probability of it snowing this week and next week, we need to multiply the probabilities of each event happening.
Given:
Probability of snow this week (Event A): 1/12
Probability of snow next week (Event B): 1/4
To calculate the probability of both events happening, we multiply the probabilities:
P(A and B) = P(A) * P(B)
P(A and B) = (1/12) * (1/4)
P(A and B) = 1/48
Therefore, the probability of it snowing this week and next week is 1/48.
Hence, the correct option is D. 1/48.
