An anti-air craft gun can take maximum four at an enemy plane, moving away from it. The probabilities oh hitting the plane at first, second, third and fourth shot are `0.4, 0.3, 0.2 and 0.1` respectively. What is the probability that the gun hits the plane? Do you agree with us that the success will raise the morale of Indian Army?

Three persons A, B and C apply for a job of Manager in a Private Company. Chances of their selection (A, B and C) are in the ratio 1 : 2 : 4. The probabilities that A, B and C can introduce changes to improve profits of the company are 0.8, 0.5 and 0.3 respectively. If the change does not take place, find the probability that it is due to the appointment of C.
