Answer:

0.2587 = 25.87% probability that the first pass he completes is the second pass.

Explanation:

Probability that the first pass he completes is the second pass.

Misses the first, with a 100 - 67.9 = 38.1% = 0.381 probability.

Completes the second, with 0.679 probability. So

0.381*0.679 = 0.2587

0.2587 = 25.87% probability that the first pass he completes is the second pass.
