Answer:

0.0105

Step-by-step explanation:

given that 30% of all houses need a paint job. Also, 15% of all houses need both a paint job and a new roof. Further, 7% of all houses that need a new roof also need new windows.

If total houses are 100, then 30 require a paint along.  15 require both paint and new roof.

Out of 15 houses which require new roof 7% need new windows

i.e. no of houses which need new windows = [tex]15*7%\\=1.05[/tex]

If there are total 100 houses, 1.05 houses require a new window

So probability that a randomly selectede house needs a new window

= 0.0105
