In a relay race, the probability that team Sapphire wins is 22%. In another unrelated relay race, the probability that team Emerald wins is 47%. How many percent probability both teams lose their races?

Verified Answer :

P(sapphire wins) = .22
P(sapphire loses) = 1-.22 = .78
 
P( emerald wins) = .47
P( emerald loses) = 1- .47 = .53
 P ( sapphire loses & emerald loses ) = P( sapphire loses) P(emerald loses) = 0.780.53 = 0.4134 

Which multiplied by 100 means 41.34%. I hope that this is the answer that you were looking for and it has helped you.
