0.056

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question;

Probability of winning, p = 0.25

Probability of losing, q = 1 - Probability of winning

= 1 - p = 1 - 0.25

= 0.75

Number of times lottery is drawn, n = 10

Now,

P( he loses all 10 of his lottery games ) = qⁿ

on substituting the respective values, we get

P( he loses all 10 of his lottery games ) = 0.75¹⁰

P( he loses all 10 of his lottery games ) = 0.056
