Answer:

2/3

Explanation:

There are 4 possible outcomes that include a restaurant, a hardware store, or both. There are 6 possible store combinations (Possibilities = 1 grocery × 3 for the second store × 2 for the third store = 6). So the probability of having a group of stores with a restaurant or a hardware store is:

4/6 = 2/3
