ANSWER


P(\text{all}-3)=0.42

Step-by-step explanation

We want to find the probability that all 3 flights will arrive on time.

To do that, we have to find the product of the probability that each plane will arrive on time three times.

That is:


\begin{gathered} P(\text{all}-3)=0.75\cdot0.75\cdot0.75 \\ P(\text{all}-3)=0.42 \end{gathered}

That is the answer.
