Answer: 0.6

Step-by-step explanation: Adding the probability of a win and a draw, you would get 0.4.

0.24+0.16=0.4

The probability of a loss is the rest.

1-0.4=0.6

The probability of a loss is 0.6.

well, you need to add both 0.24, and 0.16 together to give you 0.40. See what the difference is from 0.40 to 1.0. You should get 0.60 or 0.6 (either one can be the answer).
