    The probability that none of the generators operate properly during a power outage is 0.008

    There are 3 generators in total that does are not independent and a probability of 0.2 that a generator will fail to operate.

    In this case, we will raise the given probability of 0.2 to the power of 3 to find the answer.

    Look at the given solution below:

    .2^3 = 0.008
