To qualify for a promotion, a tech company requires employees to pass a screening test. A max of 3 attempts are allowed within 6 month interval between trials. From past records it is found that 40% pass on first try, of those that fail the first trial & take a second time, 60% pass and 20% pass wth a third trial. For an employee wishing to transfer:
1. What is the probability of passing the test on the first or 2nd try?
2. what is the probability of failing on the first 2 trials & passing on the 3rd?
3. What is the probability of failing on all 3 attempts?
