Answer:

0.33362176

Explanation:

Probability is the ratio of the number of possible outcomes to the number of total outcomes.

Given that a football team has a probability of 0.76 of winning when playing any of the other four teams in its conference, the probability that the team wins all its conference games

= 0.76 * 0.76 * 0.76 * 0.76

= 0.33362176

This is the probability that the teams wins the 4 matches played against the other teams in the conference.
