Answer:

Explanation:

Looking for the odds of four household leaders playing video games

1*0.69, or just 0.69 represents the odds of one person

0.69 * 0.69 represents the odds of two players

therefore 0.69 * 0.69 * 0.69 * 0.69 is the chance that all four play video games

0.69 * 0.69 * 0.69 * 0.69 ≈ 0.22667, or 22.7%
