space if the experiment has 3 stages?
OA. 16
OB. 12
OC. 64
OD. 81

Answer 1

C. 64

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The number of equally likely sample outcomes of a single stage = 4

Unknown:

Total number of elements if there are three stages= ?

Solution;

Probability is the likelihood of an event to occur.

In this problem;

For a single stage, the likely outcome is 4

So therefore;

For the 3 stages 4 x 4 x 4 = 64

Therefore, the total number of elements in the sample space of an experiment with 3 stages is 64
