Esteban’s cat had kittens and all three of them were white kittens with blue eyes!

About `80\%` of white cats with blue eyes become deaf.

Describe a simulation that would help answer this question: What is the probability that at least two of the kittens will become deaf?

Answer: I belive the answer is 20%

Step-by-step explanation: because if the total nuber is 100% and only 80% white cats with blue eyes become deaf that means it is most likely 20%

Answer: 100%

If 80% became deaf & 2/3 is 66% then at least two of the kittens became deaf & the other one has a 20% chance to not be deaf so it might be three but its more likely & at least 2 of them are deaf

I hope this answers your question
