Layla guesses on all 20 questions of a multiple-choice test. Each question has 4 answer choices. What is the probability of a success and a failure for this experiment?

Step-by-step explanation:

what is the criteria for success ? how many questions must be right ? and how many must be wrong for failure ?

if success means all answers right, then she has 4 choices on the first question to pick one right answer. and then for each of those again 4 choices on the second question and so on.

so, all possible outcomes are 4²⁰.

that means the probability to guess all 20 right is

1/4²⁰

a tiny, tiny number.

and the probabilty to have all wrong ?

she has 4 choices to pick 1 of 3 wrong answers.

so, the probability is 3/4 to answer the first question wrong.

for that she has again then the same chance to get the second question wrong too.

so, it is 3/4 × 3/4 = 9/16

and so on.

the probability to guess all 20 wrong is then

(3/4)²⁰ ≈ 0.0032

that is still a small number but much, much larger than the probability to get everything right.

still, even the goal to truly get everything wrong is highly unlikely.
